FAQ

Q. My horse is already AQHA registered, can it also be APHA registered?
A. AQHA horses that meet APHA registration rules can be double registered with APHA & AQHA. Being double registered may increase your horses’ value while opening up opportunities to complete at more events.

Q. My horses’ sire and dam are Quarter Horses so how can my horse be APHA?
A. Even if both parents are AQHA, if your horse meets requirements for white markings, he/she can be registered APHA.

Q. I have a broodmare/stallion that is registered APHA based on white markings; what if the foals don’t have white markings?
A. All foals by/out of APHA-registered stock (with the other parent being either APHA, AQHA or Thoroughbred) can be registered with APHA regardless of color.

Q. My horse is APHA registered but not AQHA registered, does my horse have to be double registered?
A. No your horse does not have to be double registered, just has to be APHA registered.
