Pet registration
Our pet registration period is from 1 September to 31 August each year. Renewal notices are issued in August each year. Please do not pay your pet’s registration renewal before you have received your notice. You can renew your pet's registration online.
How to register your cat or dog
All cats and dogs over the age of 12 weeks must be registered.
To register your cat or dog, you will need to provide:
- your animal’s microchip number
- proof of de-sexing (if applicable) - make sure you have this with you when you register them
- your Pension Concession Card or Department of Veterans Affairs Card (if applicable)
- your current membership card from a cat or dog association (if applicable).
You can register a new pet in the following ways:

- visit the Animal Management Centre or one of our customer service centres.
Updating your animal registration details
If you move address or change your phone number, it is important to let us know. Correct contact details could help us reunite you with your animal if it becomes lost.
To update your contact details, tell us if one of your pets is no longer residing at the property, or if you get a new pet, please call us on 07 3412 3412 or email us at council@logan.qld.gov.au.
How to Nominate Someone to Act on Your Behalf
Sometimes animal owners would like other members of their family or friends to act, speak or access information on their behalf. If you want to give access to someone else, we need the animal owner to give us this authority by filling in our Authority to act form.
Please return your completed application and documentation to us by:
- email to council@logan.qld.gov.au
