Due Date

Payment for your license is due within 30 days of the date that your current license expires. If you are licensing for the first time, you must purchase a license within 30 days of obtaining a dog over the age of 4 months or within 30 days of establishing residence in Lake County. The grace period for new pets is extended to 60 days if the pet has a current or prior-year license from another municipality in California.

A late fee of $20 is charged if your license has not been purchased by the end of the grace period.
