The second necessary prerequisite for a stallion to successfully start his breeding career is the stallion performance test. The system of stallion performance tests was extensively reformed in 2016.

The licensing is one of the two necessary prerequisites for a stallion to become fully approved for breeding. The stallions are either licensed in-hand at the age of two-and-a-half or under saddle at the age of three. Evaluation criteria are conformation, basic gaits and scope.

Honour to whom honour is due: Hopeful Hannoveraner stallions can be awarded with the Stakkato-, Weltmeyer- or Grande-Prize. The title Stallion of the Year will be awarded to exceptional stallions who have had an exemplary career and have achieved great things in breeding.
