Registration
All greyhounds and industry participants must be registered with the Greyhound Welfare and Integrity Commission.
The Commission has introduced online application and transaction services to make it simpler and easier to complete transactions. Online services are now available for registration renewals, updating contact details, greyhound naming and ownership transfers. All other forms can be completed and submitted online.

Greyhound notifications and applications
The Commission can decide to refuse, suspend or cancel registration if it is deemed in the best interests of the greyhound racing industry to do so. The Commission can refuse to register a greyhound trial track if it believes the track is not or will not be financially viable, or it is in the best interests of the greyhound racing industry to do so.
If you have any questions about registrations, please contact the Commission’s Registration and Welfare team on 13 49 42 or registration@gwic.nsw.gov.au .
Registration Assessment Program
Following recommendations made by the Greyhound Industry Reform Panel, on 1 July 2021 the Commission introduced a Registration Assessment Program which introduces competency requirements in the form of online Registration Knowledge Tests to be completed as part of the registration application process.
This assessment program will ensure anyone applying for registration has the basic knowledge to perform the role and understand their obligations as a registered participant. Initially, the registration types included in the program are Attendant, Owner Trainer, Public Trainer and Breeder. Over time, the Commission will introduce assessment requirements for other roles as well.
