CSA OFFICE PROCEDURE FOR IMPORTING ANIMALS
Following is what we ask the member to submit when registering an import from the US
- CSA import application
- The original registration certificate if registered with the ASA and is in your ownership. If you are Importing for the purpose of (Semen/Embryo) a copy is acceptable.
- DNA/blood results (if import is AI/Natural sire/semen/embryo)
- If the DNA is not High Density from the ASA or any other lab, we must order a DNA form from Neogen and have them send in their sample to have proper results to follow the CSA bylaws for the Import animals prior to Importing.
Imported animals shall be registered with the same name as shown on the certificate of registration issued in the county from which they were imported. If the name of the imported animal has a herd prefix or name that is identical to one registered with the Association, the Association has the right to change the herd prefix or name as necessary.
