Register dog ownership

Source: BUS Rheinland-Pfalz

Every dog owner is obliged to register their dog.

The obligation to register is regulated in detail in the respective municipal statutes, as is the assessment of the dog tax.

The obligation to register a dog applies, among other things, to

for dogs older than three months. They must be identified by a transponder with an identification number
when acquiring a new dog or moving in with a dog
when caring for or keeping a dog for a period of time as specified in the local dog tax statutes

Please note that more differentiated and supplementary regulations apply to the keeping of so-called dangerous dogs.

In addition, every dog owner is obliged to keep their dog on a lead on public roads within a town or in areas that cannot be seen. Outside a place, they must be kept on a lead immediately if other people approach or become visible.

Violations of the state law on dangerous dogs (LHundeG) can be punished with a fine of up to ten thousand euros. In addition, violations of the municipal bylaws can also be punished.
