Horses Smith
For buyers in Belgium

British-Produced Showjumpers, Delivered to Belgium

Horses Smith produces elite showjumping sport horses in Kent, England, for sale into Belgium — a country at the very centre of European showjumping. We handle the entire export.

Why buy a UK-produced showjumper for the Belgian market

Belgium is a powerhouse of jumping breeding, home to the BWP (Belgian Warmblood) and Studbook Zangersheide, and it sits on the doorstep of the French sport-horse world. Buyers here judge horses on scope, blood and carefulness, and our UK-produced jumpers are brought on to satisfy exactly that. Sourcing from the UK simply broadens the field of well-produced horses available to Belgian riders and dealers.

Importing a sport horse to Belgium — the real logistics

Since Brexit a UK horse enters Belgium as a third-country import, and we manage all of it. We arrange the pre-export veterinary inspection and bloods, register the move on TRACES NT, obtain the export health certificate, and book an EU-approved transporter. Belgium is a short road-and-Channel route from Kent, so horses typically arrive within a day or two, cleared and door to door.

How Horses Smith works

Belgian clients commonly begin on video with honest commentary, full veterinary history and pedigree, and are welcome to ride and try in Kent. Independent pre-purchase vetting by a veterinarian of your choice is always encouraged. We then handle export paperwork, customs and white-glove transport to your yard, and stay available for aftercare.

Prices in EUR on application. Horses measured in centimetres (hands in brackets).

Frequently asked questions

Can I buy a UK showjumper and have it delivered to Belgium?
Yes. We sell for delivery anywhere in Belgium and manage the full UK-to-EU export, paperwork and specialist transport to your yard.
How long does transport from the UK to Belgium take?
Often just a day or two. Belgium is one of the shortest mainland routes from Kent, travelled by road and Channel crossing.
Do you handle TRACES and the export health certificate?
Yes. We complete the veterinary inspection, register the move on TRACES NT, and obtain the export health certificate for entry into the EU.
Do you sell horses with BWP or Zangersheide-type jumping blood?
Our string includes well-bred jumpers suited to the Belgian market; we will be open about each horse's breeding, papers and produce.
Can the horse be vetted before I commit?
Yes, and we encourage it. You may instruct an independent veterinarian for a pre-purchase examination and we will share full records.
