Registration question

[Oh_The_Places]

Hello and thank you for your help. I have a lovely 6 year-old mare who has been successfully showing at the 1.20 on the A circuit. I believe she has the talent to one day do the Grand Prix. I’d like to finish the season and then breed her in the Spring. I’d prefer to not flush embryos, and instead to have her carry the pregnancy for a variety of reasons. I’m planning on using frozen semen from a European jumping sire. I have a good vet team in place as this would be my first attempt at breeding not using live cover.
Here are my big questions for you:

1. The mare is Holsteiner on both sides for 4+ generations. However, the breeder decided to register her as an Argentinian Sport Horse (she was born and bred there). Is there such a thing as dual-registry? Should I try to have her registered as Holsteiner so the baby could be registered Holsteiner? Does that even matter? The plan is to sell the foal as a yearling.
2. I’ve read in this forum that mares must be approved for breeding. Who does that approval come from?

Thank you for explaining like I’m five😂. I have reached out to the American branch of the Holsteiner registry multiple times with these questions but have never gotten a response. If anyone has information specific to Holsteiner registry, I’m REALLY going to need a mentor on this journey. If anyone is willing, I’d love to pick your brain!

No dual registry, but you should be able to get her approved Holsteiner. They do some inspections by video but also arrange inspections throughout the year you can go to. They’ll be able to tell you what is scheduled in your area.

She is likely also eligible to be approved with many of the other Studbook if there is another with an inspection site close to you. Most of their websites will have information about information and eligibility.

The stallion you choose may need to be approved for the Studbook as well. Sometimes, even if they are approved for the European branch of the Studbook you may run into having to pay an outside stallion fee for the US Studbook. Some have automatic reciprocity.

Some registry options exist too that may not require your mare to be inspected herself as long as the stallion is approved. Look at the North American Studbook and Zangersheide for really straightforward registration options. Both are full WBFSH members, easy to work with and affordable. I’ve used both.
