Cat and dog registration

The Animal Management (Cats and Dogs) Act 2008 and Moreton Bay Regional Council Local Law No. 2 (Animal Management) 2011 regulate the requirements for dogs and cats to be registered by 12 weeks of age or within 14 days of being brought into the region. 

Dogs are prohibited from particular properties located in Desmond Street, Samuel Way or Steven Court, Narangba in order to minimise impacts upon koala habitat.

See fees, charges and exemptions for cat and dog registrations for the current financial year. Registration period for cats and dogs is 1 October to 30 September. An animal can be registered in the name of one person only. Registration tag will be posted to registered person within 10 business days of registration.
