Brand Recording
The North Dakota Stockmen's Association has been recording brands since 1993 when the brand program transferred from the North Dakota Department of Agriculture.

There are over 22,000 brands recorded in North Dakota. Brands are registered for cattle horses, mules, buffalo, swine and sheep.

Renewal Period
The current renewal period expires Jan. 1, 2011. Renewal notices will be sent four months prior to the renewal period. If you have an adress change, please contact us with your new address to assure you will receive your renewal notice.

All brands that are not renewed by Jan. 1, 2012 are available to the public. Any brand obtained within the following five-year period will be up for renewal Jan. 1, 2016.
