HOME SAFE ID MICROCHIP REGISTRATION
It has come to our attention that HomeSafeID is likely going offline soon. Unfortunately this means that any pets registered with HomeSafeID will no longer have microchip records accessible to get your pet home safely or update your contact details.
If your pet's microchip is registered with HomeSafeID, we would recommend registering your pets microchip with an alternative pet microchip registration company as soon as possible.
If you have had your pet microchipped with us in the last 10 years your pet's details will be registered with
Australasian Animal Registry (AAR) https://www.aar.org.au/
If you are not sure where your microchip is registered you can contact www.petaddress.com.au
Alternative microchip registration companies are:

Central Animal Records (CAR) https://car.com.au/
Global Micro Animal Registry https://www.globalmicro.com.au/
Global Micro Animal Registry https://www.globalmicro.com.au/
has offered the following assistance (copied from the website) to people with pets registered with HomeSafeId:
"With the recent announcement that HomeSafe ID is no longer maintaining its database and may go offline, pet owners registered with HomeSafe ID are at risk of losing access to their pet’s microchip records.
Ensuring your pet’s microchip details remain up to date is crucial for their safety and reunification in case they go missing.
To assist affected pet owners, we are offering free re-registration of microchips previously listed with HomeSafe ID.
This will ensure your pet remains registered on an active, national database that is accessible to vets, councils, and rescue organisations across Australia."
