NLIS Cattle Tag Colours & Year Letters

NLIS cattle tags in Australia follow a colour and letter system to help identify the year of tagging. Breeder tags (first tag applied to cattle born on your property) are white. Post-breeder tags (applied to introduced cattle) are orange.

The NLIS year letter rotates annually:

Understanding cattle tag colours helps producers track birth years, manage breeding programs, and maintain accurate herd records for NLIS traceability.
