The Township is awaiting the County's certification of the 2026 tax rate and cannot calculate final tax amounts until it is received. As a result, the mailing of tax bills is delayed. The standard 10-day grace period will be extended, and the revised deadline will be printed on your tax bill. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
The Montclair Health Department hosts free rabies clinics each year in February, May and September. Once scheduled, clinic dates will be posted on our calendar.
The rabies vaccine the Health Department administers is good for one year for puppies and kittens. Subsequent rabies vaccinations are good for three years.
Your dog/cat must have a current vaccination to renew a dog/cat license.
Pet owners are responsible for keeping their pets current on vaccinations annually, should the Township's free rabies clinic(s) be delayed or cancelled, pet owners are required to maintain their pets' vaccinations as per NJ state law and Montclair local ordinances.
For more information, contact the Montclair Health Department at 973-509-4970.
