Stock Bands are already Numbered and coded with AFA numbers. They are all traceable through the AFA band registry. Custom Bands are currently not available through the AFA.
Please only order what you will need so we can accommodate others as well. For very large orders, contact the office to make an order at afaoffice@afabirds.org.

The American Federation of Aviculture offers three different types of closed leg bands: AFA stock closed aluminum or stainless bands, AFA custom closed aluminum bands, and AFA custom closed stainless steel bands.

Please note: Size requirements for individual birds may vary. The band sizes are suggested by the manufacturer. The AFA does not take responsibility for the suggested sizes. Individual states may have their own banding requirements for exotic birds. AFA cannot guarantee that these bands comply with those requirements. Each aviculturist should independently verify these requirements. . Stock bands usually take one week for delivery. Please plan your orders accordingly.

AFA Stock Closed Bands

If you only need a few bands, you can purchase what you need with no minimum order required. AFA has available suitable band sizes from Canary to Macaw. All bands have the AFA logo imprinted. The bands are traceable through a special coding and numbering system formulated by the AFA. The bands do not have a year imprinted and no customization is available. They are silver in color and are priced per band. Any inquiries regarding the origin of a band will be forwarded to the registered code owner. It will then be the responsibility of the code owner to contact the inquirer. BE AWARE SOME SIZES ARE OUT OF STOCK DUE TO HIGH DEMAND, FEB 2021

These bands are not recommended for large parrots, especially not Hyacinth Macaws, Greenwing Macaws, Buffon's/Great Green Macaws, Blue-throated macaws or Palm Cockatoos. Instead, we recommend using stainless steel.
