Ontario is developing a new fishing and hunting licensing system as part of the Ministry of Natural Resources’s ongoing commitment to enhance service delivery to clients.
The new licensing system is anticipated to be implemented in late 2026. As part of the development of Ontario’s new fishing and hunting licensing system, the ministry considered changes to modernize licensing products and processes, improve client services, and ultimately support sustainable fish and wildlife management.
Notable changes will include a free fish and wildlife app. Hunter accreditation will be able to be submitted digitally.
