About Auctions

The KWPN auctions have been a trusted and internationally respected sales platform for KWPN horses for many years. Through its auctions, the KWPN brings together breeders and buyers from the Netherlands and abroad and supports its members in the professional sale of foals, young horses and pregnant mares. A large proportion of the auctioned horses go on to successful careers in international sport and breeding.

KWPN auctions are renowned for their transparent approach and efficient organisation. As a seller, you only need to present your horse once, namely for the video day; the KWPN takes care of the remainder of the process. All horses in the collection are assessed by a KWPN inspector and undergo a veterinary examination. Prospective buyers can rely on clear information and expert guidance regarding the collection.

Thanks to this careful approach, the KWPN auctions have developed into a successful sales channel with a broad international reach.

The KWPN provides extensive support to both sellers and buyers. In addition to the selection and presentation of the auction horses, the KWPN can assist with practical matters such as insurance and finding suitable rearing facilities. For transport, cooperation is available with our experienced Official Partner Horses2Fly. Throughout the auction process, expert guidance is at the heart of the service, ensuring that all parties involved know exactly what to expect.

Bidding takes place through the online auction platform. After a one-time free registration, you can log in and place online bids on the horses in the collection. During the bidding process, you will automatically receive notifications when you are outbid. If preferred, it is also possible to place a bid by telephone.

Each KWPN auction has its own terms and conditions and entry fees. These can always be found on the page of the respective auction. There you will also find all practical information regarding participation, selection and the auction process.

Do you have any questions about registration, your account, the bidding process or participation in an auction? Please do not hesitate to contact the KWPN. We will be pleased to assist you.
