    Apart from your registration cost, you should expect to pay in the region of €100 for the DNA sampling and the microchip in Veterinary fees. This varies between Veterinary practices, but that would be a rough indicator of the cost.

    Ring around various practices and see how much they will charge you, just to be sure.

    I just noticed that you also asked about the cost of the Weatherby's kit. We personally order that ourselves, because it's cheaper, but you can also use your Vet's kits which he will have got from Weatherby's, which will be extra on top of the above fee by about €80.

    So including the Weatherby's kit, I'd say you're looking at in or around €200 in total, excluding reg costs.
