Licenses must be purchased for the same term as the rabies vaccination.
If submitting a certificate for a 3-year rabies vaccination, you must
purchase a 3-year license. If a one-year vaccination was given, you may
only purchase a one-year license.
Please consider making a voluntary donation to benefit the animals in
the care of the Fulton County Animal Services. Thank you.
The cost for licensing unaltered or fertile pets is higher than that
for licensing spayed or neutered pets in order to promote sterilization
and to reduce pet overpopulation and starvation.
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 when the pet reaches 4 months of age or within 30 days of moving
into Fulton County.
Payment Options
If you are licensing by mail, you may pay for
your license with a check or money order made payable to "Fulton County
Animal Licensing." If you are licensing in
person at the animal shelter, you may make payment via cash or check.
If you have received a billing or renewal notice in the mail, you may
be eligible to pay for your license online
with a major credit card (Visa / MasterCard / AmEx / Discover.
Required Paperwork
A rabies vaccination certificate signed by a licensed veterinarian
must be submitted if the rabies vaccination has expired. An invoice

Please include a spay/neuter certificate is the pet has been altered
since the last licensing period.
