Herd selection
Our buyers work the summer pastures in Arkhangai and Khövsgöl with herder families we have known for years. Horses are assessed on the ground — conformation, feet, temperament, stamina — before anything is agreed.
Horse import · Ulaanbaatar
Mongolian horses,
selected at the source.
We find, vet, quarantine and deliver native Mongolian horses to buyers in Europe and Central Asia — one contract, one invoice, and the export file finished before the horses move.

01 Who we are
We buy where the horses are — not at the auction.
Khangai Bloodstock is a Mongolian sourcing company working with herder families in Arkhangai, Khövsgöl and Töv. We started in 2014 by shipping eight horses to a trekking centre in Poland; the method has not changed since — find the right horses, describe them honestly, and get the paperwork right the first time.
Buyers come to us for one of two reasons. They want native Mongolian horses with the feet, stamina and temperament that only come from being raised on the steppe. Or they need a partner who already knows what the border wants, and would rather not learn it the hard way in November.
- No brokers between you and the herd — you see the footage and the vet notes.
- Veterinary decisions are made by vets, not by the person selling the horse.
- Fixed quotes and written schedules; if a date moves, you hear it from us first.
02 Services
Six things we take care of.
A horse export is a chain of small, checkable steps. We run the whole chain, so there is one name on the contract instead of five.
Veterinary screening
Every horse passes a full clinical examination and laboratory panel: Coggins (EIA), strangles, equine influenza, piroplasmosis, worm burden and a CEM swab where the destination requires it.
Quarantine
Thirty days in a licensed holding facility outside Ulaanbaatar, with daily observation, vaccination according to destination rules, farrier work and gradual introduction to hard feed.
Export paperwork
Export licence, veterinary certificate, pedigree and ownership records, customs declaration, transit permits and the import side of the file — prepared before the horses move, not after.
Transport
Purpose-built horse boxes from the steppe to the border, then road, rail or air freight depending on the destination. Stops are planned around water, rest and veterinary checkpoints.
Handover & aftercare
Arrival inspection with your vet, 14 days of acclimatisation support, feeding and turnout advice, and a named contact for the first season.
03 Stock
What we source.
Four lines, priced per head and quoted with transport separate. Mixing lines in one load is normal — most buyers take a few sport horses and a few youngstock.
MON-S
Sport & endurance
Native Mongolian horses with proven mileage on the steppe — sure-footed, economical to keep, and the backbone of endurance and trail programmes.
- Age
- 4–9 years
- Height
- 132–142 cm
MON-B
Breeding stock
Mares and stallions from documented family lines, selected for fertility history, conformation and temperament rather than colour.
- Age
- 3–8 years
- Height
- 130–140 cm
MON-Y
Youngstock
Unbroken two- to four-year-olds for buyers who prefer to start horses themselves. Halter-broke, vaccinated, feet done.
- Age
- 2–4 years
- Height
- 120–134 cm
MON-W
Working & herd horses
Steady, weather-hardy horses for ranches, conservation grazing projects and mountain stations where the horse still has a job.
- Age
- 5–12 years
- Height
- 128–140 cm
Prices on request — they move with the season and the size of the load. No catalogue, no stock photos: you get video of the actual horses.
04 Field notes
What the work actually looks like.
Arkhangai, June
Buying from the herd
Selection happens where the horses live. Herder families bring the herd in, we watch it move, and only then start shortlisting.
Töv, July
Thirty days, twice examined
Our holding facility takes eight horses at a time. Every animal is examined on arrival and again before release — no exceptions for a tight schedule.
Altanbulag, August
The border is a process
Papers are checked before the trucks roll. When they are right, the crossing takes hours. When they are wrong, it takes days — which is why we do it first.
“A Mongolian horse will carry you all day on grass and water. Your job is to get it here in the same condition.”
05 Process
From brief to arrival, in six steps.
The dates below are the ones we work to. Weather, borders and the horses themselves can move them — you will know within a day when that happens.
- 01
Brief
Destination, discipline and budget. We come back with a short list of regions, an indicative price band and the veterinary requirements of your country, usually within three working days.
- 02
Sourcing trip
A buyer travels to the pastures, films every candidate, records height, age, teeth and gait, and negotiates directly with the herder family.
- 03
Selection & contract
You see the footage and the vet notes, choose the horses, and sign a contract with a fixed price, delivery window and payment schedule.
- 04
Quarantine
Thirty days in our holding facility: examination on arrival, vaccination, deworming, farrier, and a second laboratory panel before release.
- 05
Export & transit
Certificates issued, customs cleared, horses loaded and shipped with an attendant, water and resting stops documented at every stage.
- 06
Arrival & handover
Inspection with your vet at the destination stable, acclimatisation plan, and a follow-up call at the end of the first two weeks.
06 Questions
Before you ask.
The six questions that come up in almost every first call. Anything else — write to trade@hitoym.xyz.
What does a Mongolian horse cost?
Between €1,800 and €3,400 per head depending on category, age and conformation. That figure covers selection at the pasture, the 30-day quarantine, veterinary work and export documents. Transport is quoted separately because it depends on the size of the group and the destination.
How long does it take from first call to arrival?
Six to ten weeks. Two to three weeks to agree the brief and find candidates, thirty days of quarantine, then transit — five days by road to Poland or Germany, longer by rail to Central Asia.
Is there a minimum order?
No. We will ship a single horse, but a horse box holds six to eight, so buyers who can group an order share the transport cost and usually save 30–40% per head.
Which countries do you deliver to?
Poland, Germany, the Baltics, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Georgia and Turkey. Other destinations are possible — the constraint is the import rules at your end, and we check those before quoting.
How are the horses transported?
In purpose-built boxes with padded partitions, ad-lib hay and water every four hours. Journeys are planned around rest stops with stabling; an attendant travels with every load and keeps a written log.
What paperwork do I receive?
Export licence, international veterinary certificate, laboratory results, ownership and pedigree records where they exist, customs declaration and the transit documents. You get the full file, in English, as a PDF and in paper with the horses.
