is premises registration?
A. Premises registration is an effort to establish a complete record of all locations in the United States where livestock and/or poultry are raised, held, or boarded. If you choose to register your premises, the basic contact information you provide ensures that you will be notified quickly when a disease event might put your premises and your animals at risk. While premises registration is a part of NAIS, it is independent of the other two program components (animal identification and animal tracing). Choosing to register your premises in no way obligates you to participate in the rest of NAIS.
