Sporting
Licenses
To limit
the community spread of COVID-19, DEC is encouraging hunters, trappers, and
anglers to purchase sporting licenses online. Sporting licenses may be purchased online at any time, and
anglers may use their privileges immediately by simply carrying their
transaction number (DEC-LS#) with them while afield.
Anglers,
hunters, and trappers may also use the HuntFishNY
mobile app to display an electronic copy of their license. The
HuntFishNY app is available for download through the Apple App or Google Play
stores. Back-tags and carcass tags must still be mailed, and customers should
allow 10-14 days for receipt of their tags.
DEC will
provide updates periodically via email, social media, and at www.dec.ny.gov. We will also be
available to respond to questions or concerns regarding visitation
opportunities at [email protected].
