In the canton of Basel-Stadt the following applies – our summary of the cantonal rule is available in German: «Anmelden musst du deinen Hund an zwei Stellen. Erstens beim Veterinäramt (Hundekontrolle) – sobald er 3 Monate alt ist oder innert 10 Tagen nach der Anschaffung beziehungsweise nach dem Zuzug in den Kanton. Innert derselben Frist muss ein Hund schriftlich abgemeldet werden, wenn er verkauft oder verschenkt wird, wegen Umzug den Kanton verlässt oder stirbt. Zweitens bei der Chipdatenbank AMICUS: Halterwechsel, Adressänderung und Tod des Hundes sind dort innert 10 Tagen zu melden. Der Mikrochip muss spätestens 3 Monate nach der Geburt gesetzt sein, in jedem Fall aber vor der Weitergabe durch die Züchterin oder den Züchter.» (source: https://media.bs.ch/original_file/ac1f7f9b83f6324a49175eabea2da48525a188c7/merkblatt-hundesteuer-2025-26-0.pdf, as of July 2026).
