Statute overview

About this statute

This preamble identifies Law 427 of 1998 and states that it regulates genealogical titles, exhibitions, and shows for purebred equine and bovine animals, and creates mechanisms for their protection and propagation. This article defines “raza” as a group of animals of the same species, shaped by human intervention and sharing common origin, development, production technology, and adaptability requirements. The official genealogical book is the ordered official record for purebred animals, and authorized entities must issue certifications about the information and facts recorded in it. For registration of horse and cattle specimens, the special identifying mark is the animal’s gait for equine specimens and its phenotypic or breed characteristics for bovine specimens. El Ministerio de Agricultura y Desarrollo Rural lleva los libros genealógicos oficiales y puede delegar esa función a entidades representativas que cumplan ciertos requisitos. El criador debe presentar documentación para registrar el animal.
