State hunting, fishing permits available

By My Courier-Tribune

The Missouri Department of Conservation reminds Missouri hunters and anglers annual permits expire at the end of February, including 2023 permits for small game, fishing, trout fishing and combination hunting and fishing.

Missouri hunting and fishing permits for 2024 are available from one of many vendors around the state, online at mdc.mo.gov/buypermits or through MDC’s free mobile apps, MO Hunting and MO Fishing, available for download through Google Play or the App Store.

The conservation department also offers the ability to avoid manually renewing permits each year by using MDC’s permit auto-renewal service.

“It allows customers to enroll eligible permits in a service that will automatically renew their permits prior to the start of the next season or permit year. The process was designed to ensure customers never have expired permits when they need them most,” reads a release. Learn more at mdc.mo.gov/permits/permit-auto-renewal.

Commercial and lifetime permits can be purchased only through the MDC Permit Services Unit by calling 573-522-0107 for an application.
