DEFRA REGISTRATION

Well that’s an hour of my life I’ll never get a back!
So, I’ve completed the form, downloaded the form, read everything I can find etc, but when I click the button to email the form it doesn’t do anything at all and neither can I find an email address to send the completed form to?
The RPRA site just talks about registering less than 50 birds, which probably doesn’t apply to many fanciers, so I’m really not sure what I’m supposed to do to register my loft?
As ever, any help gratefully received!

I'm a fancier with less than 50 birds, did it on the DEFRA site. Took a few mins. Got an email back from them a few days later. Followed by a letter with ID number

Well I haven’t got any birds at all yet, but from what I’m hearing about bird losses etc I’ll be wanting more than 50 inc YB, OB race team and stock birds. Although I don’t suppose anyone from DEfRA is going to come round and count them from home?

Just tried to register less than 50 as you have done but it says their website is ‘experiencing technical issues due to volume of registrations’.

This is the email address to send the form to if you have completed that.
[email protected]
I must say I done mine a couple of months ago online and it was easy but struggling to find the Gov.uk site for doing it on line. It just seems to give you the form to fill out.

I did my registration two years ago, I just followed the information video's posted on the RPRA website, if I remember rightly something went wrong the first time I tried but the second time was quite simple.
Good luck Peter.
