To register Black Angus cattle, you have to get a membership with your country's Angus Association. In some parts of the USA, there are state Angus associations you can sign up at (Texas, Iowa, Miama Valley and A.L.O.T [Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma and Texas] are those states that have their own Angus Associations), but for most states that do not have their own state Angus association, you have to sign up through the American Angus Association. If you live in Canada, you can sign up via the Canadian Angus Association, or through the different provinces' associations (B.C., Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec and P.E.I have their own Angus associations). Other countries that have their own associations (if you live there) are New Zealand, the U.K., Portugal, Denmark and Australia. Depending on where you live, you first have to pay the joining fee (it's $80 to join the American Angus Assoc.), then pay a fee per calf, cow or bull you have to register.
You also have to remember that for all Angus Associations, both parents of the calf must be purebred stock and must be proven as purebred Angus cattle. DNA tests are done primarily on the bulls, and this is to prove they are purebred Angus. Both the dam and sire MUST have records that link them to other purebred Angus stock, otherwise you cannot register your calf.

Do some angus cattle have horns?
It's possible, however all registeterd Angus cattle are polled. A few animals may be scurred, but that's not that common. Any black cattle that are horned are not fullblood or purebred Angus. The various Angus Associations around the world will not recognize horned black cattle as Angus cattle when a producer tries to register such animals. The scurs or horns (if they do present themselves) come from the influence and breeding-up done by producers when they have introduced Jersey and Shorthorn (earlier in the breed's history) into the Angus bloodline to deter from too much inbreeding. Both of these breeds are horned, Jersey moreso today than Shorthorn, and it should be no surprise that horns or scurs may come up in some fullblood or "purebred" Angus cattle. But as mentioned above, if such animals come about, they do not qualify to be registered and are only recognized as commercial Angus cattle.
