(a) Any owner who uses a brand to identify cattle, hogs, sheep, goats, horses, and other animals belonging to that owner must submit an application to the department to register the owner's brand.

(b) The application shall be made on forms prescribed and furnished by the department and shall be accompanied by payment of a fee set by rule pursuant to § 43-1-703 and a facsimile of the brand to be registered. If the brand described in the application closely resembles another brand previously registered by another owner, the commissioner may reject the application for registration, but in the event the brand does not closely resemble another brand previously registered, the commissioner shall issue to the applicant a certificate of registration.

(c) A person having a brand duly registered with the department may transfer the brand to another person by notifying the department of the transfer and giving the date of transfer and the name of the transferee. Upon receipt of the notice, the department shall note the brand transfer and the name of the transferee in its register of brands. The transferee shall not use the transferred brand until the department notifies the transferee that the brand transfer has been noted on the department's register.
