What are the transfer requirements/costs for purchasing a Morgan horse registered in Canada?
When a US owner buys a horse from a Canadian owner, the transfer must be submitted to the Canadian National Livestock Records (CNLR) first. They will forward the Canadian registration certificate to the AMHA with all of the appropriate horse and ownership information. At that time, AMHA will contact you and let you know what form(s) and fee(s) you will need to submit to the office. Once we receive the requested information and fee(s), we will issue an AMHR certificate that will be mailed to you.
