License
Information and Requirements
1.
|
A
Maryland resident will need a Resident Hunting License which
allows you to hunt all legal game birds and mammals
in season without
the need for additional
stamps, except: (1) deer during bow season; (2) deer during
muzzleloader season; and (3) migratory game birds. |
2. |
There
are two types on Nonresident Hunting Licenses: |
|
|
a. |
A
full season license allows nonresidents of
Maryland to hunt all legal game with same conditions as Resident
Hunting License. Applicants must furnish a clear copy
of either their driver’s license or voters registration
card to establish state of residency. |
|
|
b. |
3
day Waterfowl and Small Game license which allows a
nonresident to hunt all legal game in season for three consecutive
legal hunting days except deer and turkey. A migratory Game
Bird Stamp must also be purchased to hunt migratory game birds.
|
3. |
There
is a Regulated Shooting Area Special License,
which allow the hunting of pen-reared quail, pheasants, chukar
partridge, turkeys and mallard ducks on a regulated shooting
area only. This license is not required if you have a Maryland
resident or nonresident hunting license.
|
4. |
There
is a Maryland Migratory Game Bird Stamp, which
must be purchased, in addition to a hunting license, by everyone
who hunts waterfowl, doves, rails, coots, snipe or woodcock.
|

A
Federal Migratory Bird Hunting Stamp must also be purchased
by persons 16 years of age or older to hunt waterfowl. |
