County Parish Holding (CPH) Number
Pigs are considered as livestock; so you will need to register for a County Parish Holding Number (CPH) to keep a pig.
England
If you are residing in England these can be obtained from the Rural Payments Agency (RPA). There is currently no charge for this and it can be organised with a quick five minute telephone call. The telephone number is 0845 603 7777. This normally takes 1-2 weeks to process, however can be processed quicker if you request it over the phone.
Wales & Scotland
If residing in Wales & Scotland you will have to contact the Animal Health Department at your local County Council. The process is relatively the same; however they seem to take a little bit longer in processing - so bare this in mind when organising your application.
