Hi there!

im completely new to the horse transportation as a business world and have a few questions. I am likely going to be going out to southern California from NM in a couple weeks with my three horse gooseneck and was thinking since it'll be empty I should see about hauling other people's horses to make a little money. I know that a Coggins and health cert. will be needed for the horse, but what about any waivers of liability or contracts for my good? Also should I take payment before or after the horse gets to the destination? Wanna make sure I would be doing it right. 
thanks!

Each state has different requirements, so you would have to check with the specific state.

If you are hauling horses for money that are not yours I would strongly suggest checking with your insurance company.  They may cover you and yours or others hauling with you, but may have a clause that will not cover you if charging a fee (business vs personal).  Just something to consider.

You have now just become a commercial hauler in the eye's of the DOT.   You are crossing state lines so you will need a health card and CDL licence. You will need commercial cargo insurance as well as commercial vehicle insurance.

I would not do it.

Nothing new here. Everything is as usual: the horse's passport with vaccinations and fresh blood; permission to export a horse; Russian veterinary certificate; import or transit veterinary certificate of the country of entry or destination; notification of the veterinary service at the border of entry into the European Union; documents confirming the value of the horse; customs declarations or Carnets.
