Angling Licences

SK Hunt & Fish Mobile App
The new SK Hunt & Fish Mobile App is the official hunting and fishing licence management app for the Government of Saskatchewan. The app provides essential fishing, hunting and wildlife information, and conveniently stores all your purchased licences. Search SK Hunt & Fish in the Apple App Store or Google Play Store.

How To Buy A Licence

Angling licences are available:

If purchasing online, you will require a Hunting, Angling and Trapping Licence (HAL) system account. If you have an existing account, use your HAL number or your previously registered secondary identification number. Do not create a second account. If you require assistance with your account, call 1-855-848-4773 (8 a.m. to 9 p.m.).

It is a violation to:

  • Use more than one HAL number for the purpose of obtaining or applying for a licence.
  • Hold or apply for a licence while suspended.

Remember – your HAL ID is a one-time, permanent and personal number.

Eligibility

Whether you are an in-province, out-of-province or out-of-country angler, there is important residency and licence information that you will need to know before buying a licence.

Saskatchewan angling licences are based on residency. Please review the residency definitions listed below prior to purchasing your licence.

Saskatchewan resident: A person who is a Canadian resident with a principal residence in Saskatchewan and has lived in the province for three months immediately preceding the date of licence purchase, or is a regular member of the Canadian Armed Forces who was a Saskatchewan resident when recruited or deployed from the province.

Canadian resident: A person who has a principal residence elsewhere in Canada and is a Canadian citizen, or has lived in Canada for 12 months immediately preceding the date of licence purchase.

Non-resident: A person who is not a Saskatchewan or Canadian resident.

Senior: A Saskatchewan resident 65 years of age or older who produces proof of age and Saskatchewan residency does not require an angling licence, but must meet all other fishing regulations. Out-of-province seniors require a licence.

Canadian Armed Forces Veteran: A veteran is a Saskatchewan or Canadian resident who is a former member of the Canadian Armed Forces, has successfully undergone basic training and has been honourably discharged.
