Online Licensing Now Available for Fido

The Town of Swampscott is making just a little easier to keep your dog legally licensed.

You can now purchase your annual dog licenses online for a nominal extra fee (.$50 for echeck and 3.2 percent for credit and debit transactions).

When you log on to purchase your license, you’ll need to either upload a copy of the current rabies vaccination certificate or verify that the Swampscott Town Clerk has a copy on file (call 781-596-8855 or email at sduplin@town.swampscott.ma.us or chayes@town.swampscott.ma.us to verify the status of your certificate).

Once your payment has been processed, your new tags will be mailed to you.

The fee schedule is as follows:

• Neutered/Spayed $10, plus late fee of $5 for dogs registered after Jan. 31, 2016
• Intact $25, plus late fee of $5 for dogs registered after Jan. 31, 2016
• Neutered/Spayed $10 (new to town, no late fee)
