This is a list of the horse breeds usually considered to be native to Japan.[1][2] Some may have complex or obscure histories, so inclusion here does not necessarily imply that a breed is predominantly or exclusively Japanese. In Japanese, this breed group is called "kokunaiuma".(国内産馬, domestic horse)

There are also five crossbreeds that have been developed from existing breeds:[3]
Current crossbreed names were established in 2003,[note 2] and the general breed classification『乗系種』(riding horse) was split into Sport Horse and "normal" riding horse.[6]
There is also a sixth crossbreed definition, heavy crossbreed (輓交種), defined 2007 solely for the purpose of determining the proper registry for a foal.[6]
