Registration of Kiger horses in the KHAR is a relatively fast process. We guarantee your registration certificate within 45 days if you have submitted all the pertinent info required for registration. So what is needed to register? Click on the "Instructions" link above to find out more.

The KHAR studbook is divided into three divisions: Traditional, Appendix, and Partblood. Those horses in Traditional will have a "T" at the beginning of the registration number. Those horses in Appendix will have an "A" in their registration number, and those horses in Partblood will have a "P" in their registration number.

Recognized colors in the Traditional and Appendix are: dun, grulla, red dun, claybank, bay and black. Any color or color pattern is allowed in the Partblood division.

For Traditional and Appendix, horses will be inspected and must receive at least an 80 to obtain registration. Those horses scoring 90 or above will receive a "star" following their registration number to signify prime examples of Kigers. During inspection, the horse will be evaluated for basic conformation faults. Each trait is weighted to determine how detrimental they are for basic riding conformation and for breed recognition (breed type) traits. It is extremely important to have excellent photographs of your horse so that an accurate and fair evaluation can be made.
