Public Notice - Dog Registration Renewal Notices

Published on 22 July 2025

Hinchinbrook Shire Council advises that Dog Registration Renewal Notices have now been issued to dog owners.

To be eligible for the 50% discounted registration fee, payment must be made on or before Friday, 15 August 2025. Please note the following important information:

  • The discount applies to renewal registrations only and does not apply to regulated dogs;
  • New dog registrations made during the discount period are not eligible for the discount; and
  • Working dogs must still be registered. However, if your dog is classified as a genuine working dog, no fees apply.

Owners are encouraged to provide accurate details to assist in identifying and returning dogs should they become lost.

Payment Options

Council offers a variety of convenient payment methods:

  • In person at Council’s main office or any Australia Post outlet;
  • Direct Debit;
  • Telephone;
  • Mail;
  • BPAY;
  • POSTbillpay – Australia Post; or
