DO YOU NEED TO REGISTER A HORSE WITH THE NEW MEXICO HORSE BREEDERS ASSOCIATION?
HERE ARE SOME GUIDELINES TO FOLLOW
 You must be a current member in order to register any horses. All memberships expire Dec. 31st of every year. All forms can be found on our website at www.nmhorsebreeders.com or we will be happy to email, fax or mail you what you need.
 Fill out the ENTIRE New Mexico Bred application front and back. If you don’t know the answer to a question, PLEASE FIND OUT. IF THE APPLICATION IS INCOMPLETE IT WILL BE SENT BACK TO YOU TO FINISH BEFORE WE CAN REGISTER AND STAMP YOUR HORSE PAPERS.
 Pay the correct fee. All horses age on January 1st and the fees go up as they age. The weanling fee is $60.00, yearling fee is $150, two-year olds are $1,000 and three year olds and up are $2,000.
 Know who the sire and dam are and have the correct spelling of their names.
 Was the semen transported? If so, it needs to state that on both the horse’s papers and our application. On the back of the New Mexico Bred application, we ask if the semen was transported and if so, where was it sent. Please fill in this information if applicable.
 Please use an Embryo Transfer application (form 100A) if the horse is an Embryo Transfer. Both the Donor Mare and the Recipient Mare have to be registered with us. We need to know who both mares are and where they were kept during the pregnancy.
 If the Broodmare (Donor or Recipient) leaves the state to board elsewhere, there are special forms which need to be
completed. And there is a fee of $500 to be paid no later than Oct. 1 of the breeding year. If a pregnant broodmare remains in New Mexico and then leaves after the Oct. 1 deadline, you will have 10 days to get the payment and form into office. Remember, they must be bred in New Mexico and come back to New Mexico to foal. We do re- quire a return form be submitted prior to foaling as well.
 Don’t wait to have papers on the horse to start the registra- tion with us. You can fill out the application as unnamed and pay the fee before the horse ages and the fee goes up.
 Don’t forget to send us the papers when you get them to stamp New Mexico Bred. The horse is not a New Mexico Bred until this has been completed.
 When registering a Broodmare we need a copy of her papers. For recipient mares that have never been papered, we need four photos (front, back, left and right sides). The fee is $100 and New Mexico Bred racehorse fillies need to be re-registered as broodmares if being bred.
 When registering a Stallion, we need a copy of his papers. Make sure you have the official negative EVA test results from a laboratory and an EVA Certificate filled out by your veterinarian when registering a Stallion. He cannot be registered without these items. The fee is $400 and New Mexico Bred racehorse colts need to be re-registered as stallions if being bred.
