Petdata: Animal Licensing Made Easy

Your pets must be licensed in Manatee County. Your pet (dog, cat or ferret) requires a yearly rabies vaccination and a Manatee County license. Failure to obtain this registration could result in fines as high as $1,000. Purchasing a license is not just the law, it is like taking out an insurance policy – if your pet ever gets lost, it can help ensure they’ll find their way home.

Annual Pet License Fees

Purchase at Animal Welfare for $20. To purchase a pet license tag, update your license information, or look up a tag of a lost pet, go to PetData.com or call 855-332-4646.
 
To purchase any pet license, you must provide proof of a current rabies vaccination.  Vaccines can be administered at your local veterinarian. 

LICENSE CERTIFICATE shall mean a document evidencing registration and vaccination for rabies of a dog, cat, or ferret residing in the County which contains at a minimum the information required by Section 828.30, Florida Statutes (2005).

 Failure to obtain license tag:

  • 1st offense - $200
  • 2nd offense - $350
  • 3rd offense - $500
