​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Licenses by Phone or Internet

​​How the Online and Phone System Works ​ 

  • Customers enter all identification information and license requests through Web pages or talk to a sales representative by phone. 

  • Request is authorized by the system. 

  • Customers must use a Visa, MasterCard or Discover to purchase a license. Some debit cards work if they can be used without a PIN. Licenses are mailed within 24 hours of the purchase. 

  • Customers must have completed all the requirements for Hunter Education before applying for or buying a license or before applying for a preference point. 

  • You must have your physical license to hunt any animal that requires a carcass tag such as big game and turkey, the TAN does not apply. Items sent via standard shipping may take 30 days to arrive from your order date. If you need your product sooner, you need to select "pick-up at sales location" or pay the extra fee for express shipping.

  • A receipt can be printed from your printer (Internet). 

  • For fishing and small game licenses a temporary authorization number (TAN) may be substituted for the license(s) purchased for 45 days from the date of purchase. Please print or write down (must be legible) the TAN and carry it with you while hunting or fishing until you receive your license. If the license OR all of the licenses you purchase in this transaction expire in less than 15 days, you will NOT receive anything in the mail. Use your printed email receipt while using your short-term license(s) or permit(s).

  • Telephone sales representatives are trained to sell licenses and do not know specific wildlife-related information. For other wildlife-related information/questions, call the Parks and Wildlife Denver Headquarters at (303)297-1192 or email using the AskCPW form​.

  • A sales agent will enter your customer information (name, address, etc.) and license request(s) into the terminal.
  • Your license(s) is authorized through the new system.
