Hunter’s responsibility

It is your responsibility as a hunter to ensure you:

  • obtain written permission to hunt on declared public land via the online booking system, available on the DPI Hunting Website, before you hunt.
  • are able to produce a current R-Licence and written permission for the land you are hunting on, for inspection when requested by a Hunting Inspector, NSW Police Officer or landowner/occupier
  • understand and comply with all conditions that form part of the written permission to hunt on that public land area, as well as the general licence conditions
  • comply with reasonable directions given to you about your hunting by a DPI Hunting Inspector, NSW Police Officer or landowner/occupier.

Hunt NSW app

The Hunt NSW app allows NSW game hunting licence holders to access and store current hunting maps and their written permissions digitally in one location.

When you’re in the field, the mobile app can access online licence holder services so you can:

  • book a hunt
  • cancel or amend written permissions
  • update personal details
  • complete harvest returns
  • report illegal hunting.

Changing details on your written permission

At times, you may have to change or amend the details listed in your written permission. You may be taking a different vehicle or leaving one of your hunting dogs at home. Your written permission is a legally binding agreement and all details must be correct.
