County Pet License / TagsIn Pinellas County, it is required by law that pet owners obtain a license for their cats & dogs. In order to obtain a pet license, each dog and cat over the age of four months must receive rabies vaccinations or an exemption letter from their veterinarian. Once a rabies certificate or exemption letter is obtained from their vet the form is brought into Pinellas county Animal Service or sent in by mail and a license will be issued.
The county license tags are valid throughout a pet’s lifetime. An issued licensed tag number will be your pet’s permanent number, just as a Social Security number identifies a particular resident. Although a license number is permanently identified with a pet, the license expires at the date of the rabies vaccines expiration. Licenses are issued during all regular business hours.
