Purchase of a Migratory Game Bird Hunting Permit

The 2024 Migratory Game Bird Hunting Permits (valid from August 1, 2024 until June 30, 2025) will be sent to the purchaser by e-mail within a few minutes following your online purchase.

The system allows you to buy one or multiple permits at the same time for more than one hunter.

Note that the permit is not refundable.

IMPORTANT! You must be able to show the permit to a Game-Officer upon request. To be valid, the permit (physical or electronic) no longer needs to be signed. You must carry the permit with you at all times, either in physical or electronic PDF format, when hunting or when in possession of unpreserved migratory game birds or any murres in a place other than your residence. A provincial or territorial licence may also be required.

If you have any issues purchasing a MGBH Permit please contact the MGBH Permitting team directly by calling 1-855-869-8670 or emailing CWSPermit.PermisSCF@ec.gc.ca.
