Northern Ireland will introduce voluntary low-frequency EID tags for cattle starting in September 2026, marking the first such rollout in the UK. This development creates a new market for tag manufacturers and reader providers, while establishing a voluntary framework that could serve as a pilot for mandatory traceability programs across the British Isles.
