Pass on a Maine tradition…and a gift that will last a lifetime.

Your investment in a lifetime license for yourself or as a gift, will allow the bearer to fish, trap, and/or hunt for their lifetime, regardless of where they will live in the future. The revenues generated by the sale of these licenses will be deposited in a special trust fund that will provide long-term financial support for Maine’s fish and wildlife.

Applicants 70 years of age:

For a one-time fee of $8.00, a senior lifetime license entitles the holder to all privileges they are qualified to receive including hunting, trapping, archery, and fishing. The license also includes the following: bear hunt, bear trap, muzzleload, migratory waterfowl, pheasant, spring and fall turkey, additional spring turkey, coyote night hunt, crossbow, and one expanded archery antlerless deer permit. (Must still apply for any-deer and moose permits each year when applications become available.)

NOTE: If you purchased a senior lifetime license before age 70, you do NOT have to pay the $8.00 fee, and the permits listed above are included with your lifetime license anytime during the calendar year you turn 70 years of age.

Maine prides itself on our rich outdoor heritage.

For more information about the Lifetime License Program, please call (207) 287-8000.
