TRANSFER OF REGISTRATION
1. The Society will only effect transfers of
registration on return of the Registration Certificates with a
bill of sale or transfer from or such other evidence as the
Society deems acceptable.
2. The Registration Certificates shall be posted
or handed to the Manager within thirty (30) days from the date
of delivery of the horse concerned; provided that should the
registration certificate be posted or handed to the Manager more
than thirty (30) days, but within sixty (60) days, or more than
sixty (60) but within ninety (90) days after such delivery, the
fees payable in respect of such transfer shall be respectively
double and treble the prescribed transfer fee.
3. The Registration Certificate for transfer
mailed or handed to the Manager more than ninety (90) days after
such delivery, shall be accepted and dealt with by the Council,
subject to such fees as the Council may prescribe.
4. An application for the transfer of a
registered or recorded horse shall be accompanied by the
registration or recording certificate of the horse concerned,
whereon the full name and address of the transferee, the
signature of the seller or transferor, together with the date of
delivery shall appear in the space provided on the certificate.
5. If the horse to be transferred is in the foal
shall, together with his application for transfer, furnish the
Manager with a service certificate. Such service certificate
shall specify the date of service, the full name and
registration or recording number of the stallion concerned, and
shall contain a statement to the effect that the mare concerned
at the date of delivery to the transferee could not have been in
foal to any stallion other than one mentioned in the service
certificate.
6. A change of ownership shall be deemed to have
taken place when:
1. A horse is sold, exchanged or donated.
2. A horse is inherited.
3. A partnership is dissolved, and
4. A horse is registered or recorded jointly in
the names of more than one owner and anyone (or more) of such
owners disposes of his share in the horse so registered or
recorded, or relinquishes his interest in the said registration
or recoding for any reason whatsoever.
7. Should for any reason whatsoever the seller
or transferor, in the opinion of the Council, completely fail or
refuse to take any steps to effect such transfer and fail or
refuse to deliver the original registration or recording
certificates, and should the transferee be willing to pay such
fess as the Council may prescribe, the Council may, with the
Association, undertake such steps as it may deem fit to meet the
wishes of the purchaser or transferee, provided that in such
case the penalizing provisions by Rule 11.2 and 11.3 shall be
applied to the transferee.
8. In all cases of transfer between spouses or
as from parent to child, or child to parent (including
children-in-law and grandchildren) whether by way of scale,
donation or inheritance, only half prescribed transfer fees
shall be payable.
9. No transfer will be registered without the
signature of the person in whose name the horse is currently
registered unless legal title passes by reason of death,
foreclosure of a lien or by court order or decree or otherwise
by operation of law.
In such circumstances the Society may transfer
the registration:
9.a) On receipt of an order of a court with
jurisdiction or on other legal proof of authority for the
transfer, and
9.b) On payment of the appropriate fee and of
any reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Society.
