PERMANENT MEDALLIONS

To be more environmentally friendly and efficient, in 2019, the SPCA de l'Outaouais started offering better quality and permanent medallions. Therefore, you don't have to replace your animal's medallions every year. However, you must continue to renew your animal's license by paying the fees due, every year before December 31^st. The SPCA de l'Outaouais keeps the medallions number in an electronic register and can easily trace the owner in case of a lost pet.

Please note that as of April 1, 2023, a $25 late fee applies for the purchase or renewal of a license for the current year.

This fee does not apply to animals acquired in the last 3 months if proof of acquisition is provided (ex: adoption contract). This is a separate proof from the sterilization one you will be asked to provide. As soon as your license transaction is completed, send your proof of acquisition to licences@spca-outaouais.org. Once your request has been processed, a $25 cheque will be sent to you by mail.

Please be patient and respect the loading time of the pages when purchasing your license.

**For Ville de Gatineau only: The price of the licence is reduced by 50% for an animal acquired after June 30. A refund will be made on presentation of a supporting document (adoption contract, certificate of registration, veterinary certificate, copy of acquisition costs, etc.). Please insert the document in the appropriate section.

Important: This does not apply to owners who are at fault or who would voluntarily delay the purchase of the license to benefit from this discount.

Please note that as of April 1^st 2022, a $20 late fee applies for the purchase or renewal of a licence for the current year. If you have a new animal, please purchase your licence in person at the shelter to avoid late fees. Do not forget a proof of sterilization if your pet is sterilized.
