Frozen Semen Retention Permit
Frozen Semen Retention Permit
I hereby acknowledge that I have read and agree to be bound by and follow the ApHC rules pertaining to frozen semen. I also
understand that ApHC will investigate non-compliance with these rules and, in the event of such non-compliance, any resulting foals
may be ineligible for registration.
I understand that one Retained Semen Rights Permit is required to register a foal conceived using frozen semen from this stallion after
he is no longer in my ownership. The signed permit will serve as the stallion owner’s portion of the breeder’s certificate.
As the stallion owner, I understand that I must ensure that a sufficient number of Retained Semen Rights Permits are purchased prior
to my sale of the stallion. Once the ownership changes, I understand that I may no longer purchase Retained Semen Rights Permits
from ApHC.

SEMEN RIGHTS RETENTION PERMIT
A. In the event a stallion owner wishes to sell a stallion, but retain rights to use frozen semen, s/he may purchase frozen
semen rights retention permit(s) from the ApHC. The application for purchase must be on a form provided by ApHC and
proper fees must accompany application. (See Fee Schedule)
1. Only the recorded owner or lessee of the stallion may purchase frozen semen rights retention permit(s). Only
signatures of the recorded owner or lessee of the stallion shall be accepted on the application(s).
2. Once a stallion is sold, a former owner or lessee cannot purchase additional frozen semen rights retention
permits from the ApHC.
B. Each of the retained frozen semen rights permits purchased may be used as the stallion breeder’s certificate for the
registration of only one foal.
1. ApHC will record the number of outstanding permits for each individual stallion and that number will be a
matter of public record.
2. It is the ultimate responsibility of a prospective buyer to confirm with the seller, the number of outstanding
permit applications not yet recorded on ApHC records as of the date of sale.
C. The ownership of the retained frozen semen rights permits may be transferred. (See Transfer of Ownership Rules and
Fee Schedule.)
1. The ApHC shall record each transfer of ownership of the permit. The rules of transfer of ownership of a horse
shall apply to frozen semen rights retention permits, except the request to transfer ownership of the permit shall be
accompanied by the retained frozen semen rights permit instead of the Certificate of Registration.
D. Purchaser of the retained frozen semen rights permit is responsible for filing the appropriate stallion breeding report as
required by ApHC rules and paying the required filing fees.
