Paying with Canadian Funds

Since CERF is charged a handling fee of $8.00 for processing checks or money orders drawn on Canadian financial institutions, an $8.00 fee will be charged for registrations paid using Canadian funds. To avoid this fee, please pay using either:

1. Checks or money orders drawn on United States financial institutions.
2. Visa or MASTERCARD. (Please provide us the credit card number, expiration date and the name as it appears on the card.)

We are sorry for the inconvenience.

Any registrations requests submitted with Canadian Funds will be sent back with a letter requesting the extra $8.00 fee.

CERF Policy about Permanent ID

Starting from January 1, 2001, CERF adopted a policy that a permanent identification in the form of DNA profile, microchip or tattoo will be needed for any dog to be registered. Dogs not permanently identified will continue to be registered, however, they will be issued a CERF number with the suffix "N" indicating that the dog has no permanent identification. For example:

• With permanent identification LR-54321
• Without permanent identification LR-54321N

Please notify CERF when your dog receives a permanent ID and we will update our records and re-issue your certificate.
