How do I transfer dog or cat license tag to a new owner?

Share:

To transfer a dog’s or cat's license tag to a new owner you will need to provide the following documentation:

• Both new and old owners must appear in person at the Animal Services Pet Adoption and Protection Center 
  • A notarized transfer of ownership letter from current owner and
  • Copies of each person’s driver's license or valid State photo ID

To update the account:

• If owner has died and close relative (father, daughter, mother, son) wants to transfer ownership, advise them of the age requirement (18) and
• A copy of the person’s death certificate along with ID will be required.

The documentation may be emailed or presented in person to:

Miami-Dade Animal Services
