Dear Delegates, In light of the recent situation in the Gulf region and the Middle East, the Executive Committee has been closely monitoring developments that may affect the travel and safety of our Members. Due to the ongoing uncertainty regarding travel possibilities for many of our delegates, the Executive Committee has decided, after careful consideration, to shift the dates of the Annual General Meeting.
Following the current situation in the Middle East , ECAHO would like to recommend the following:
The Executive Committee has decided to align the validity of the current “walk-in” rule with that of the new Blue Book 2026.
Please be aware that the Show Commission approved very important change of the rules (RCS, art. 22) - with effect since 1.1.2026 all horses at the shows must enter the ring in WALK ONLY.
Please be informed that the Breeders´ Arabian Horse Show (2.-4.11.2025), Kiryat Yam Haifa, organized by Walaa Ashkar has been affiliated to ECAHO.
The ECAHO Executive Committee, further to its announcement of 6 October 2025 on shows in Israel (https://www.ecaho.org/news/announcement-from-the-ecaho-executive-committee-shows-in-israel), has decided not to support any non-affiliated events in the country of Israel organized from this point forward.
