Document background
The Horse Bill Of Sale With First Right Of Refusal is a specialized legal document used in Germany for equine transactions where the seller wishes to maintain future interest in the horse. This document is particularly relevant when selling valuable breeding stock, competition horses, or animals of significant sentimental value. It combines standard sales provisions under German law with specific clauses that grant the original seller the first opportunity to repurchase the horse if the buyer decides to sell in the future. The agreement must comply with the German Civil Code (BGB), particularly sections regarding animal sales and pre-emptive rights, as well as German animal welfare laws. It's commonly used by professional stables, breeders, and private owners who want to ensure they have future access to their sold horses.
