ANCCE - the Royal Purebred Spanish Horse Breeders’ Association (Real Asociación Nacional de Criadores de Caballos de Pura Raza Española) is the officially recognized Association to handle the Purebred Spanish Horse Stud Book (known by the abbreviation LG PRE ANCCE) and to manage the breed’s Breeding Program. A Purebred Spanish Horse is considered as such if and when it is registered in the PRE Stud Book, managed by ANCCE, to thus participate in the Breeding Program. The PRE Stud Book is the body that issues Equine Identification Documents (EID) for all Purebred Spanish Horses inthe world.  The main PRE Stud Book office is located in the city of Sevilla (in
southern Spain). ANCCE has been recognized by the Ministry of Agriculture since 2007 as the maximum representative of the breed to handle the PRE Stud book.

The APSL is the governing body of the Lusitano horse in Portugal. It was founded at the initiative of a group of members of the Associação Portuguesa de Criadores de Raças Selectas [Portuguese Association of Breeders of Selected Breeds] which, in considering that the breed needed an exclusive Association, created the studbook in 1967. The official approval of the Lusitano Breed Studbook was a decisive step forward in giving rise to a painstaking, across-the-board selection process which has ensured the absolute quality of the pure blood horse.

APSL’s objective is to defend and promote the Lusitano Purebred equine breed and maintain the Lusitano Breed Studbook with the aim of ensuring the breed’s ethnic purity and to help improve the breed’s zootechnical and sanitary development, based on the approval of its breeding stock. In 1995 its activities were rewarded by the granting of “Public Utility” status.
