The Society has three types of membership. You can apply to join online here.

Fees are published on the Society's web site here.

The Society is an Incorporated Society registered with the New Zealand Companies Office. It has charitable tax status and is registered here with the Charities Commission, a division of Internal Affairs.

The Society is governed by a member elected Council of Management, supported by voluntary management in Registrar, Secretary and Treasurer positions. These positions are paid a small, annual, honorarium.

A Constitution, developed by, voted on and approved by members describes the objectives of the Society, how the Society manages itself and how the Council of Management must perform its duties.

1. Full Membership

Full Members are entitled to all Society publications and information, full participation of Society activities, the facility to register cattle in the herd book and voting rights.

2. Junior Membership

You must be under 18 years old to be eligible for a Junior Membership. Junior Members receive all Society publications and information, have full participation of Society activities, ability to register up to 5 cattle, do not have any voting rights.

3. Associate Membership

Associate Members receive all Society publications and information, have full participation of Society activities, do not have any voting rights or ability to register cattle. An associate membership is designed for people who own cattle but do not want to breed them, or have an interest in the breed but don't want to own any cattle.
