USDA Exemption Certification
Under USDA regulations, no auction company or “B”-licensed dealer can accept regulated animals without either the seller's USDA license number or an exemption statement certifying the seller isn't required to have one.
If you have a current USDA license, you do not need this form. Just include your license number on your consignment contract. For complete sellouts by non-licensed kennel owners, you can instead provide a letter of exemption from USDA (APHIS Animal Care, 2150 Centre Ave, Building B, Mail Stop #3W11, Fort Collins, CO 80526-8117 · (970) 494-7478).
