The cost to license a pet in Morgan Hill varies depending on the animal's status of being spayed or neutered. See the chart below for complete details. Note: if your pet has received a recent three-year rabies vaccination, you can opt for a three-year license.

Standard License Fees	1 Year	3 Year

Dog or Cat (Altered)	$13.00	$32.00
Other Fees
Late Fee (60 Days Late)	$40.00

How Long Does the Pet License Last in Morgan Hill?

As stated, the pet license lasts for one year, but you can get as long as three years with a recent rabies vaccination.
