§ 2313. Certified copies.

(a) Issuance.--If a form of identification is recorded, the department shall furnish its owner with two certified copies of the record of the form of identification. Upon receipt of written evidence of the sale, assignment or transfer of a form of identification, the department shall furnish the new owner with two certified copies of the record of the form of identification. Additional copies may be obtained by the payment of $15 for each copy. This fee may be changed by the department through regulations.

(b) Filing.--Within ten days of receiving the two certified copies of the record of the form of identification, the owner of the recorded form of identification shall file one of the certified copies in the office of the county recorder of the county where the owner's principal place of business is located and one copy in each county where domestic animals bearing the recorded form of identification are to be kept. If the form of identification had a prior owner and the prior owner filed a certified copy in any other county, the subsequent owner shall file a certified copy in each county in which the previous owner had filed.
