TAX & LICENSE / HUNTING & FISHING LICENSES

Florida hunting and fishing licenses can be purchased through county tax collector’s offices and other agents like sporting good stores or major retailers that sell outdoor equipment. For your convenience, licenses are also available through a toll-free number that allows use of a credit card:

The temporary license number is issued in minutes, and a permanent license arrives in the mail. Hunter education is a prerequisite in Florida for any person who was born on or after June 1, 1975. The Florida Fish & Wildlife Commission website provides a wealth of information on natural resources, outdoor sports, and seasonal game.
