How to Register and Show with MI-FQHR

REGISTER & SHOW WITH MI-FQHR IN THREE EASY STEPS:

STEP 01

Complete a Pedigree Search & Horse Registration Application

To determine if your horse can be registered with the FQHR, you will need to pull an 6-generation pedigree search that is available for free at AQHA.

Access the free search tool HERE

If you do not wish to obtain the pedigree research yourself, the National Registry will perform the search for you for a $20 fee.

To access the Horse Registration payment option as well as the Horse Registration Application.

Email your application, pedigree search, and a front and back copy of your AQHA papers to fqhr@gtoast.net. These documents can also be mailed to the national office at PO Box 165, Vicksburg, MI, 49097. Once you’ve received your FQHR Horse Registration confirmation, you can move on to step two.

STEP 02
