Register your pet

All cats and dogs 12 weeks and over must be registered.

To register your cat or dog, you will need to provide:

  • your animal’s microchip number
  • proof of desexing (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 breeder membership card from a recognised cat or dog association (if applicable).

If you are registering a new animal between 1 March and 31 August each year you will not be charged the full registration fee. You will be charged based off how long is left in the registration period (which renews in August). If your pet was living on your property before 1 March, you will need to pay the full registration fee.

You can register a new pet in the following ways:

  • register online
  • visit the Animal Management Centre or one of our customer service centres.

*Please note: Registration fees are non-refundable. Failure to pay your registration, update yours and your pet’s details may result in a fine.
