Store Listing Instructions

Important guidelines for listing pets on Zoan

1. Pets You Can List

  • Only KCI-registered dogs can be listed on Zoan.
  • Puppies and kittens must be 8 weeks or older.
  • All details provided must be accurate and truthful.

2. Photo Requirements

  • Good photos = faster sales!
  • Minimum 3 clear, original photos required.
  • We will provide sample images for correct photo standards.
  • No blurred, edited, AI-generated, or screenshot images.
  • Videos are optional but highly recommended.

3. Exotic Pets

  • Exotic pets can be listed only if you have valid legal licenses.
  • No banned, endangered, or protected species (example: snakes).
  • Contact us if you are unsure about any species.

4. Shipping Cost

  • Add the maximum shipping charge at the time of listing.
  • Shipping cost cannot be increased later.
  • This helps avoid confusion and keeps buyers fully informed.

5. ID Verification

  • Every breeder or store must provide a valid Government ID (Aadhaar / PAN / DL / Passport).
  • This is only for verification and platform safety.

Providing documents builds trust and increases sales.

Please upload any of the following if available:

  • KCI Certificate / Valid License
  • Health Checkup Certificate
  • Vaccination Records

Even if some documents are not available, upload what you have, buyers appreciate honesty.

  • Listings not meeting our standards may be edited or removed.
  • We may contact you if changes are needed.
