Applications must be made before the last Friday in April to be eligible for the reduced fee for the following registration year. Approvals are subject to a satisfactory property inspection and administrative checks.

Farmers with more than 5 working dogs
Farmers with more than 5 working dogs that were eligible for reduced fees last year, please contact us as soon as possible if you have had changes to your dog registration details i.e.; if you have any deceased, transferred, or new dogs. If you currently have 5 working dogs but expect to add to that number, please let us know as soon as possible so that we can process your upcoming dog registration fees swiftly.
