License in Person

Payment for your license is due within 30 days of the expiration of your current license. If you are licensing for the first time, you must purchase a license within 30 days of obtaining a pet over the age of 4 months or within 30 days of moving into Broward County. Non-residents who have a pet in the County for at least 3 months must register the pet within 30 days of arrival.

You may license your pet in person at Broward County Animal Care at 2400 SW 42nd St in Fort Lauderdale. Please bring your pet’s rabies vaccination certificate and microchip number (if applicable) with you.

You may also purchase a license at a participating veterinary clinic.

1. A current rabies vaccination certificate is required if the rabies vaccination on file has expired. Please check your certificate for correct address and pet information.
2. A pet’s microchip number is required for the lower license fee, if not already on file.

Your paperwork will not be returned to you, so please retain a copy of your documents for your records.
