Moving Swine Within Wisconsin - Fairs, Exhibitions, and Shows

​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​PRRS and PEDv

The PRRS/PEDv rule was repealed, and the new rule was published July 1, 2026. Testing for swine movement is no longer required for Wisconsin imports or for intrastate movement. PRRS and PEDv are still reportable diseases in Wisconsin. Please visit DATCP Home Reporting Animal Diseases to report PRRS, PEDV, or any other reportable diseases.

​​Fairs, exhibitions, and shows may have additional requirements. Be sure to consult the event rules. Requirements are subject to change as conditions warrant.

Commercial swine — including menagerie pigs if animals owned by multiple people are present, rodeo side show, circus pigs, racing pigs, pet pigs, rescue pigs, and sanctuary pigs — moving within Wisconsin to a fair, exhibition, show, or other event must have the following:

  • Certificate of veterinary inspection (CVI)
    • Include the complete physical origin and physical destination address
    • Official identification is not required unless required by individual fairs/exhibitions/shows.
  • A statement on the CVI from the issuing veterinarian that they have inspected the entire herd of origin within the past 30 days before the show and that no apparent disease was present at the time of inspection. 
  • No testing or herd plans required.
