Frequently Asked Enrollment Questions

    • Foals in the southern hemisphere are typically born between July 1 to December 31.

    • These foals are recorded as being born the following year.

    • For example: a southern hemisphere foal born on August 9th, 2025 will count as a January 1st, 2026 foal as far as NRBC enrollment goes.

    • In the enrollment forms, enrollees should still put in the actual date of birth and check the box that asks if the foal was born in the southern hemisphere. The NRBC system will then adjust the date of birth accordingly.

    • Regardless of a foal’s age at the time of enrollment, their fees are placed in the purse the year that they turn four.

  • Yes! We offer a variety of payment plan options:

  • First time enrollment for a stallion costs $6,000 and includes a pre-paid pass out fee. Stallion enrollment fee in subsequent years is $3,000, due by February 1 of the current year.

    If stallions are enrolled for the year after February 1, the enrollment fee increases to $4,000.

    • When a stallion is enrolled, the enrollee pays for both the first year of enrollment and the last year of enrollment (whenever that may be).

    • For example: if you enroll your stallion in 2025, your $6,000 enrollment amount includes the pass out amount. Every year you will renew your enrollment. If for some reason you decide in 2030 that you no longer wish for your stallion to be enrolled, the year 2030 will already be paid for because of the pre-paid pass out.

    • This protects any foals that may have been sired in 2030 from the sire’s enrollment running out before they are born and able to be enrolled.

    • Enrollments for current year are due February 1 to renew the stallion at the regular enrollment fee of $3,000. If the deadline is missed, a late enrollment fee of $4,000 may be paid to continue enrollment for the current year without using the pre-paid passout fee. If the fee is never paid, the passout will be used and your stallion will no longer be enrolled starting with the following year.

  • Yes. The re-enrollment fee for stallions who have already used their pre-paid pass out is $7,750. This includes coverage for a later additional passout year.
