(1) A self-inspection certificate was used for cattle inspections involving twenty-five head or less at the point of private sale, trade, gifting, barter, or any other action not in connection with a public livestock market that constitutes a change of ownership.

(a) The self-inspection certificate was completed and signed by the buyer and seller. The original completed copy of the certificate must accompany the cattle.

(b) The buyer must provide, at the time of reinspection, additional proof of ownership documentation for all cattle bearing brands not recorded to the seller listed on the self-inspection certificate.
