Testing of electronic identification devices conforming to ISO standards 11784 and 11785 is done according to ISO standard 24631, parts 1 – 4. This standard was published in August 2009 and thereby replacing the previous ICAR test protocols used since 1995. The test procedures in the two sets of documents are identical, which means that the tests performed and approvals given in the years 1995 to 2009 under the ICAR test protocols are still valid under the ISO 24631 standard.
The ISO standards on animal identification above referenced are available in the ISO store: http://www.iso.org/iso/iso_catalogue/catalogue_tc/catalogue_tc_browse.htm?commid=47156
