Renewal Notice

You have received a Renewal Notice for your pet's Manatee County Animal License. Our records indicate that your pet's previous license will be expiring soon and that payment should now be made to renew your license. If your pet's rabies vaccination is also expiring, you must have your pet re-vaccinated and submit a copy of the new rabies certificate with your renewal notice and payment. The renewal notice will indicate the expiration date of the rabies vaccination on file.

The metal tag you receive with your first license is permanently assigned to your pet. If the tag has been lost or damaged, please indicate which pet requires a new tag. Otherwise, only a receipt will be sent when a license is renewed.

If your pet is deceased, you no longer own the pet, or you have moved outside Manatee County, please contact us so that we may update our records.

To license your pet quickly and conveniently, you may make payment online via major credit card. Any required documents may be scanned and uploaded or submitted later by fax, mail or email. The license will be issued after all required documents are received. If you cannot find the answer to your question, please Contact Us and a Customer Service Representative will assist you.
