We have figured it out: the DNA report costs $35, paper and postage around $4 per certificate.
With our very modest fee of $40 per horse, that leaves very little if a certificate needs to go overseas (much more expensive) or to Canada (more expensive).
We do not count our labor as a cost. So, the Board has decided to change the Registration fees as of August 1st, 2015.
There will be a slight price difference for members and non-members, but if someone also joins when registering their horse(s), they will get the member fee.
New Pricing as of August 1st, 2015:
Foals in the year they are born: $40 members + $10for non-members
Horses that are ALREADY VNIIK registered: $40 members + $10 for non-members
All other horses: $60 members + $10 for non-members
