certificates OR animals being registered with a transfer to a third-party owner at the same time. If you are double-registering an animal

from any other registry this is not the correct form!

Please make sure your read the following instructions carefully. If information is incorrect or incomplete, your transfer may be delayed.

To Transfer ownership of an ADMS registered animal, please send ALL of the following:

1. The Original Certificate of Registration (please keep a photocopy for yourself as things can get lost en route). Please do not fold certificates. (Please note that if an

animal has NEVER been registered, this form is not needed UNLESS you are registering to owner #1 and transferring to Owner #2 at the SAME TIME.)

2. This completed Transfer Form.

3. Any additional Information and Photos for animal. (Such as updated height!) *SEE BELOW

4. CORRECT TRANSFER FEE :

$7.00 Transfer fee if THIS IS A MATURE ANIMAL and you wish to have the certificate reissued with the transfer information , ie your name in the owner field,

and transfer information/previous owner listed in the TRANSFER FIELD. ) (For MATURE ANIMALS ONLY - immature animals will NOT BE DONE with a reissue)

$5.00 transfer fee. IF THIS IS AN IMMATURE ANIMAL OR you wish your Transfer endorsed but certificate NOT REISSUED (A transfer endorsement sticker

placed in the transfer field on the same certificate, which is the way the majority of Horse registries handle transfers) All Immature Transfers for ADMS are done this way

only. (You may also do this on animals to be sold again right away. If you send this form with both prices shown and only $5.00 we will do as a sticker transfer and

NOT reissue the papers)

*Mature animals are over age 3 if Miniature, over age 4 or 5 if mules or Mammoths. ANY ANIMAL UNDER THE AGE of THREE will have their transfers

processed as IMMATURE.

* If the animal was registered as immature and is now past its third birthday (not before age four for Mammoths, Mules and Zebra Hybrids) please take the time

to update the animal at this point. There is no additional fee to update the papers at the same time you do the transfer! ($7 transfer fee ONLY applies) . What is

needed is the height (from ground to withers, using a measuring stick, in increments of ¼") and recent photos of the mature animal (side views, one of each side showing

any markings clearly). This will save extra trouble, time and fees.

Please note transfers are NOT official unless performed by the registry that issued the registration papers. Proper recording of papers can only be done by

sending the papers to the correct registry that matches the name shown on the paperwork.
