Current as of January 01, 2025 | Updated by Findlaw Staff

(1)(a) A person engaging in, carrying on, or conducting, wholly or in part, the business of buying, selling, trading, or dealing, within the state, in the skins or pelts of furbearing mammals is considered a fur dealer within the meaning of this title.

(b) A fur dealer shall secure a fur dealer certificate of registration from the division, except a certificate of registration is not required for:

(i) a licensed trapper or fur farmer selling skins or pelts that the licensed trapper or fur farmer has lawfully taken or raised; or

(ii) a person who is not a fur dealer and who purchases skins or pelts described in Subsection (1)(b)(i) exclusively for the person's own use and not for sale.

(2)(a) A person who is employed by a resident or nonresident fur dealer as a fur buyer, in the field, is considered a fur dealer's agent.

(b) The fur dealer employing an agent shall apply for a fur dealer's agent certificate of registration, and an agent certificate of registration may not be issued until the necessary fur dealer certificate of registration has been first secured by the employer of the agent.

(3) The vendor shall issue a receipt to the vendee whenever the skins or pelts of furbearing mammals change ownership by virtue of sale, exchange, barter, or gift. Both the vendor and vendee shall produce the receipt or evidence of legal transaction upon request by the division or other person authorized to enforce this title.
