Transfer From Nsw To Act

[SkySoaringMagpie]

I have a dog going to a new home on Wednesday. She is currently chipped to me in NSW, do I just grab another form from my local council to transfer the microchip to them in the ACT or do I need to use an ACT form (if so what, I cannot make any sense of the TAMS website)

I do a lot of interstate rehomings of purebred Iggies. If the dog is listed with the NSW Govt in your name, when you rehome interstate you just need to complete the same form (Transfer of Ownership) with all the new owner's details and send it to the council. Just check with your council that is all they need.

Then when the new owner gets the papers from the NSW Govt, they need to register the dog with their council in ACT and they will tell them whatever else is needed at that point.

If I've rescued a Victorian dog and am rehoming in VIC (which I do from time to time), there is a different form/authority.

Thanks dogmad, much appreciated!

I am in Queanbeyan and when I rehome anywhere else in Australia I suggest that the new owners also put the dog on the National Pet Register as it is a 24 hour service, NSW is only 9-5 5 days a week
