In accordance with state law, all dogs in Mattapoisett are required to be licensed annually before April 1. Dog may still be licensed at the Mattapoisett town clerk’s office, located at Town Hall between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday through Friday. Residents may also pay online on the town’s website, www.mattapoisett.net. Click on “Online Payments” then the “Town Clerk’s Online Payments” icon. Payment may be sent by mail or put it in the drop box at the back of Town Hall.

As long as an updated rabies certificate is on file, the town clerk will mail the license out as soon as payment is received. A $10 late fee will go into effect on June 1. Call 508-758-4100 ext. 2 to check on the status of a dog’s license or rabies certificate.
