You must complete the online process personally by no later than 31 December 2023. Completion of an annual return is a professional obligation under the Veterinary Practice Act 2003 and you should not delegate this task to another person. You must declare that you have personally completed the annual return prior to lodgement.
Please take care when answering all questions in the annual return. It is an offence under section 68 of the Veterinary Practice Act 2003 to provide information in an annual return that is false or misleading.
Fees: The 2024 annual practice fee for general registration has been fixed under the Veterinary Practice Act 2003. The fee must be paid by no later than 31 December 2023. All fees can be found here
Late fees: Please note that a late fee of $262 has been fixed under the Veterinary Practice Act 2003 to apply to all renewals of registration received after 31 December 2023. To avoid incurring the late renewal of registration fee, please renew your registration by completing the online process by no later than 31 December 2023.
Not renewing registration: If you do not wish to renew your registration for the 2024 calendar year, you must still lodge an annual return for the 2023 calendar year. Please do so by clicking ‘Lodge’ at the bottom of this screen. You will be prompted to answer questions relating to the 2023 calendar year. Please select the option ‘I do not wish to renew registration as a veterinary surgeon for the year ending 31 December 2024‘.
