Open ProvincesFishing and hunting licences in Saskatchewan: where to buy and what you need
How to buy a fishing or hunting licence in Saskatchewan: the official portal, the identification or training you need and the exemptions, from the official pages.
Where to buy and what you need
Licences are bought through the Hunting, Angling and Trapping Licence (HAL) system: a one-time account (with an ID number such as a driver's licence or passport), a Visa or MasterCard and a printer, or by phone at 1-855-848-4773 or from issuers. Anyone born after January 1, 1971 must complete a recognized firearm safety/hunter education course to hold a game or fur licence (saskhuntered.ca, 306-352-6730). Hunters who skip the mandatory harvest survey pay a $15 fee on the next licence. The SK Hunt & Fish app stores licences.
Fees, seasons and catch limits change every year and are not listed: use the regulations summary or guide for the year. Federal rules also apply to migratory birds and to fishing in national parks (separate permits). Hunters generally need to show hunter education or firearms safety certification. Rules, fees and programs change and were read on 2026-11-14: confirm with the official source. General information, not legal advice. Quebec follows its own rules: see atlasquebec.ca.
