The UK Knabstrupper Association is the only Defra/EU approved Passport Issuing Organisation & Stud Book Holder for Knabstruppers in the UK. The UKA follows the rules and principles of the KNN of Denmark. Please contact us by eMail or call on 01572 723109 for Passport or Registration enquiries. In addition the UKA holds a 'Part-Bred Register' for any horses in the UK with some Knabstrupper breeding but which do not comply with the rules of the KNN of Denmark Main Stud Book or Appendix to Main Stud Book. The UKA also holds a 'Register for Horses with Coloured Characteristics.' Both additional registers are held separately to the Main Stud Book but qualify for passports according to the rules in force at any given time - see below GUIDELINES FOR PASSPORT APPLICATIONS: All prices are as shown in the UKA Price List above. Main Stud Book or Appendix to Main Stud Book Registrations and Passports require DNA Parentage Reports (see above). These registrations will also require a (minimum) 3 generation pedigree as specified by the KNN of Denmark and horses to be microchipped. Part-Bred Register Passports can be issued without DNA Parentage Reports but will be noted on the passport as 'Pedigree Not Verified.' A partial Knabstrupper pedigree is required and (if possible and by choice) a partial DNA Parentage Report can be provided by DNA testing. Horses to be passported for this Register will require to be microchipped. Passports issued for the 'Horses with Spotted Characteristics' Register will not require DNA testing or evidence of any pedigree but will require the horse to be microchipped.
