Dear Dog Owners and Friends,

The annual dog registration drive is fully under way in Beijing as if May 1, 2017. The registration licenses of all registered dogs in Beijing municipality expires on April 30, 2017.

The dog license registration renewal period runs annually from May 1st to June 30th. New dog licenses will be valid from May 1, 2017 to April 30, 2018.

ICVS strongly recommends that all dog owners renew dog licenses before May 25, 2017 as the annual crackdown on unlicensed dogs has already begun this year in various districts in Beijing.

To renew your dog license, you must present your official rabies vaccination red book with proof of a rabies vaccine for your dog within the past 12-months. 

China does NOT recognize 2- or 3-year rabies vaccines from North America or Europe. All dogs must be rabies vaccinated annually in China.
