Yes. Equestrian Australia states that helmet tagging is mandatory for all EA affiliated and FEI activities in Australia (Show Horse and Vaulting are exempt). Event schedules may include block times for helmet tagging.
Helmet taggers are volunteers. To find tagging dates and locations, contact your State Equestrian Branch. If you cannot find a suitable date or time, email your branch and it will try to connect you with a nearby tagger.
