So many people call us about the problem that they purchased a dog
which has European pedigree and papers but the person they acquired it from did
not do the necessary procedure to have the dog converted to AKC by obtaining the
correct documentation from the country in which it was born and registered.
Plus there are times when an imported female dog that is pregnant from a male
stud dog which is still in Europe, has a litter born in the United States, these
puppies can be registered here in United States but many people who are in the
dog business do not know the correct procedure to ascertain which documents for
the litter to be eligible for AKC registration. If the mother is already
registered with AKC, then the registering of the litter is $150 which does not
include any late fees or penalties imposed by AKC but does include the regular
litter registration fee. Our service includes acquiring the necessary
documentation and signatures from Europe concerning the male stud so the litter
may be registered here in the United States with AKC.
Converting pink papers which have the last European owner's signature assigning
the dog to you costs $200 which includes all the European fees, the AKC fees,
foreign and domestic mailing. You will need to provide two color photographs of
the dog in a standing position, one from the side and one front view. If you do
not have the last European owner's signature but do have a written executed
contract signed by all parties or a canceled check, then this will substitute
for the required signature.
In the event you do not have the last European owner's signature, then there is
an additional $100 charge for the attempt to ascertain said signature. It is an
additional $75 per signature which is missing after the first signature.
In order to implement the above conversions for you, "certified" copies of the
original pink papers, pedigrees, contracts of sale, canceled checks, breeding
agreements, etc., will be necessary, along with the above mentioned pictures if
required. Please retain all originals and only send certified copies.
Understanding the success of acquiring the needed documentation and conversion
process is based upon what information is presently on record with the registry
in Europe for your dog. There are no guarantees but every effort possible will
be made to be successful in ascertaining your AKC papers.
We are able to convert papers for Germany, Hungary, Chez Republic, Slovak
Republic, Romania, Belgium and Netherlands (Holland).
