Pet Licensing begins on January 1, 2024
- Certificate of Rabies Vaccination,
- Spay/Neuter Certificate, if not stated on the vaccination form*,
- A completed Pet License Application Form, and
- $12 cash or check, payable to the Town of Belmont**
Incomplete applications received will be returned to the applicant.
Pet owners may appear in person at Town Hall, mail their completed pet applications to Town Hall, Town Clerk's office, 455 Concord Ave, Belmont, MA 02478, or renew their pet's license online.
Please note, the online system is only for renewals at this time. If you are licensing a pet for the first-time in Belmont, you must appear in person or mail-in the completed application.
When renewing online, you may see that the renewal is "blocked," which means that we need an up-to-date rabies vaccination certificate from your pet's veterinarian. The Town Clerk's office can accept emails of vaccination certificates from either the pet owner or vet's office; send a PDF copy of the certificate to townclerk@belmont-ma.gov or fax it to (617) 993-2601.
