To renew your dog's current license, please use the link below. If your dog needs an updated rabies vaccine we MUST see the vaccine certificate (this can be emailed to clerks@townofmanchesterny.gov). If a late fee is due, your dog's license will not be renewed until all associated fees are paid. You may also renew multiple dog licenses with one transaction by listing license numbers like this "1234, 1272" in the payment portal below.
*PLEASE NOTE*
All credit/debit card transactions will be charged additional service fees. For most transactions, this fee will be $1.00 if the subtotal is below $40 OR 2.45% if the subtotal is greater than $40. All water payments are done through a separate payment portal and will therefore have different processing fees. Please note that these fees are not charged by or collected by the Town of Manchester. These charges come directly from the companies that process credit/debit transactions. Thank you for your understanding!
Funds added to your transfer account online are not available for immediate use; please allow
1 full business day for the funds to be added to your Transfer Station Account. Thank you!
Town and County taxes were mailed on December 30, 2025 and are payable January 1st through March 31st, 2026. If you have not received a bill by the end of the first week in January, please reach out to us at clerks@townofmanchesterny.gov to request a duplicate copy.
Thank you!
*Please note that paying online or in person with a credit/debit card involves an additional 2.45% processing fee. We apologize for this fee, but there is nothing we can do to avoid it.
Please click the link below to make water payments by credit card. If you have questions about your water account, please email water@townofmanchesterny.gov. Thank you!
*Note: the water payment portal may be unavailable at the beginning of the month. If this is the case and it's a weekend, please check again the following Monday after 12 (noon). If it's still not working, please email water@townofmanchesterny.gov.
