Although evidence of breeders utilizing an Iberian-Friesian cross dates back 400 years, the Warlander has been a distinctly organized horse breed only since the 1990s.
 No breed-specific Warlander organizations are affiliated to the global Universal Equine Life Number (UELN) foundation, although the Bavarian Specialist Breed Registry (Bayerischer Zuchtverband für Kleinpferde und Spezialpferderassen, or BZKS), which does hold a UELN designation for its studbooks, publishes a Warlander breed standard.
Warlander supporters are optimistic that this recognition opens the door to formalization of the breed within the European Union system.
