Hunter Education Requirements

To purchase hunting items online, you must have an Accepted Proof of Hunter Education added to your customer record. If you complete the California Hunter Education Course, your certificate number will automatically be added to your customer record within 48 hours after completion of the course. If you are unable to wait 48 hours, you may provide your proof of hunter education to an authorized CDFW License Agent in your area.

To submit another form of hunter education, log in to your customer record and select Upload File from the menu (requires creating a password if not done previously) or email us at LRB@wildlife.ca.gov and request a secure upload link to provide your proof of hunter education. Please allow up to five (5) business days for us to process your request. After your proof of hunter education has been added, you will be able to purchase hunting items during the current and future license years.

Harvest Reporting Requirement

All anglers or hunters that purchased a tag or report card are required to submit harvest data, even if they were unsuccessful or did not hunt or fish.

When it’s time to report, have your tag or report card in hand. Select Customer Login / Register, retrieve your customer record, and select “Harvest Reporting” from the main menu. Harvest reporting deadlines vary per species. Visit the CDFW website to obtain information about Hunting and Fishing harvest reporting requirements.
