• Livestock Manifest: A producer generated document showing the owner’s movement of cattle within their own jurisdiction.
2. Bill of Sale
Out of Province Transport Permit for all steers originating outside of Alberta. This Livestock Permit is a document issued by a Livestock Inspector/Brand Inspector after an inspection has been done on the cattle, and the cattle then travel to their destination on the permit, showing they have been inspected. These are usually valid for a set amount of time and expire once they arrive at the destination on the permit. All brand inspected provinces & states require inspection prior to leaving that jurisdiction and a Livestock Permit is issued to accompany the cattle. The document required for cattle originating from these locations for the purpose of show or sale are as follows:
• British Columbia: Must arrive on a BC Livestock Permit
• Saskatchewan: Must arrive on a Saskatchewan Livestock Permit
• Manitoba: Must arrive on a Manitoba Livestock Manifest, or may also arrive on a Saskatchewan Livestock Permit if they had the cattle inspected by a Saskatchewan Inspector.
• Other brand inspected jurisdictions: Must arrive on a Livestock Permit from that jurisdiction.
• Non-brand inspected jurisdictions – Should arrive on a manifest from that jurisdiction, but may need to complete an Alberta Livestock Manifest upon arrival if a manifest is not available in their jurisdiction.
• Age verification preferred.
