Tasmanian eID Tag Discount Scheme (Round 2)

As of 18th March 2026 the Rebate scheme has closed. On 13th March 2026 DNRE announced an early closing to their Sheep and Goat eID Tag Rebate Scheme stating it would close on Friday 3rd April 2026 or until funds exhausted. On 18th March DNRE announced the scheme has now closed.

As part of the implementation of a national electronic identification (eID) traceability system for sheep and farmed goats, Tasmania’s primary producers received a point of sale eID tag discount from 1 January 2024.

The Support Scheme aimed to assist owners of sheep and goats to transition from the current visual device and mob-based approach to individual electronic tagging of sheep and goats, by providing a rebate on purchased tags.
