Federal Duck Stamp Now Available in Ga. Online

The Georgia Department of Natural Resources said that waterfowl hunters can now get their federal duck stamp online.

According to the DNR, before this year hunters needing a Federal Duck Stamp, which is required for all waterfowl hunters, could not get that license at the same time as their other licenses.

However, the DNR now said that it offers the Federal Duck Stamp to hunters at the same time they are purchasing their other recreational licenses.

In addition, the DNR said it also now offers a Waterfowl Package at www.GoOutdoorsGeorgia.com.

This package includes a hunting license, Georgia Waterfowl Conservation License, HIP permit and the Federal Duck Stamp, all on a convenient plastic card. If hunting on a Wildlife Management Area, the DNR says people will need to add a WMA license.

Georgia DNR Wildlife Resources Division Director Rusty Garrison said that being able to get all the licenses one needs from one site is a major convenience factor and he thinks hunters will appreciate that.

To purchase the Federal Duck Stamp or other hunting licenses, visit www.GoOutdoorsGeorgia.com.

The DNR said that when someone orders a license online, they will receive a confirmation email with a printable PDF of the license.

Also, they will get an email notification prior to license expiration date each year and a discount if renewed before the license expires. There is also an auto-renew feature.
