In order to receive official ISR or Oldenburg
N.A. registration documents each foal

as the foal). Check section MARES for eligibility of
mares.
must be by an ISR/Oldenburg N.A. Licensed or Approved
Breeding Stallion or the sire must have had a Certified
Breeding License for the year of breeding. Check the
STALLIONS and the RETIRED STALLIONS sites for the list
of approved and formerly approved stallions. For the
eligibility of foreign stallions (imported frozen semen)
or stallions approved by other registries check with
the office for a single breeding permit.
For Oldenburg registration the mare must be entered
into the Premium or Main Mare Book.
For yearlings a letter of parentage verification (retrieve
DNA forms for foal and dam from the section SERVICES)
is required.
3yo and older are eligible for registration with ISR
or Oldenburg NA, depending on the status of sire and
dam.
Foals may either be presented at an ISR/Oldenburg inspection in the year they are born (see also section INSPECTIONS for details)
or the owner may submit inspection paperwork by mail. Forms will be sent to the owner,
after name of sire, name of dam (and her sire and her
breed) and year of birth of the offspring have been
submitted to the Registry.
Certificate of Birth
If either sire or dam are not approved by ISR/Oldenburg
Registry NA the foal/yearling will be eligible for a Certificate
of Birth (CoB). This is not a registration paper. These
foals must either be presented at a regular inspection site
or apply for a CoB via mail.
