Home / Guides & Tips / Jockey Colours Registration – Complete Guide for Australia & New Zealand

Before ordering your custom jockey colours from Mittys, make sure they are registered with the relevant racing authority in your region.

Registration helps prevent duplicate designs, supports race-day compliance, and avoids delays before your colours can be used.

Do Jockey Colours Registrations Expire?

Yes — racing colours registrations can expire. Each state or national racing authority has its own renewal cycle (often yearly or multi-year), and if your registration lapses, your colours may be released and made available for someone else to register.

To ensure you can continue using your colours on race day, make sure your registration stays current by checking your renewal date and keeping your details up to date with the relevant authority.

For renewals, changes, or expiry checks, please contact your correct racing body (for example, Racing Victoria, Racing NSW, Queensland Racing, Racing SA, Racing WA, Tasracing or New Zealand Thoroughbred Racing), or speak with your local racing club for guidance.
