I just had to handle the same question. So I checked with DEFRA and they told me 6 months.

So I was going to use 6 months from the completion of the book/licence.

Animal movement licenses





Dear all,

Is anyone aware of any regulations which specify how long a keeper should
retain animal movement licenses?  By that I mean the farm itself, rather
than the local authority which receives the top copy.

Many thanks,

Julie
