FWP licensing call center extending hours of operation

Press release

Hunters and anglers who are purchasing licenses online and have questions for Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks can take advantage of extended hours at the licensing call center now through April 1.

The call center will be fielding calls from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Friday starting March 9 until April.

2020 general licenses are on sale now at FWP offices and local license retailers around the state.

Hunters have until April 1 to apply for deer and elk special/limited draw permits. Application can be completed online or at any FWP office that sells licenses. In order to apply for special permits and enter the drawing, people will need to supply a valid email address at the time of application. If they are successful in the draw, they will receive an email to that email address that contains the link to their permits/carcass tags. This link can be clicked only one time, so it is very important that the email be checked at a location with a printer that is ready to print. 

All special permit applicants can check their status by visiting http://fwp.mt.gov, then clicking on the MyFWP tab at the top, then on Check Drawing Results, Register for Lists button on the left.

The licensing call center number is 406-444-2950.
