Angling Licences now Available 2017

 

What is it?

e-Licensing is an electronic web-based system that enables residents and non-residents to purchase licences and apply for draws online for angling, hunting and trapping. 

​

​

Where is it offered?

• Online Access: Visit www.gnb.ca/naturalresources. You will need access to a computer, internet, and printer as well as a credit or debit card.

• Participating vendors

• Service New Brunswick (SNB) centres

 

What’s New?

 

One-time Registration

Your information such as your name, address and contact information will be collected once when you first access e-Licensing. You can do this in advance or before you purchase a licence.

 

At this time you will be assigned an Outdoors Card number. This number will always be displayed on your licence.

 

New Brunswick Residents

New Brunswick residents must have a valid New Brunswick Driver’s Licence number or New Brunswick Photo Identification card number (both issued by SNB) to prove their New Brunswick residency.

 

If you have neither of the above, you can visit any SNB centre to show other proof of residency.

 

Conservation Education Card

If you have a Conservation Education Card, this number can be entered in e-Licensing to link your profile with any previous training you have taken in the province, allowing you to buy licences that require specific training.

 

Outdoors Card

Your new Outdoors Card number will be printed on a card that will be sent to you after registration. The card can be used anytime when you wish to access e-Licensing or to identify yourself at a vendor or SNB centre.

 

Licence Design

All licences bought in e-Licensing will be printed on a standard 8 ½” x 11” sheet of paper. If you purchase multiple licences, they will all appear on the same sheet. This new licence design allows easy and accessible printing.

 

Tag Design A NEW salmon tag will be used in 2015. The tags have two parts consisting of an adhesive label and a metal wire. Tagging instructions are found on the back of the adhesive label.

 

In 2016, once hunting and trapping licences are included in e-Licensing, this tag design will be used for salmon, bear, moose and deer.

 

It’s necessary to activate tags in e-Licensing when buying a licence which require tag(s). This is done by entering a tag number in e-Licensing. The tag number will be displayed next to the relevant licence.

 

Where can I get the tags?

Tags are available at vendor locations, SNB centres and DNR offices free of charge.
