IDFG website temporarily unavailable
The Idaho Fish and Game website is temporarily unavailable during the December 10 nonresident tag sale. We will return to normal operations when the sale has been completed. We apologize for the inconvenience.
Important Note: This is not the licensing sales website. To participate in the nonresident tag sale, please visit GoOutdoorsIdaho.com.
Nonresident deer and elk tag sale information
Licenses and tags can be bought online at GoOutdoorsIdaho.com, through the Idaho Fish and Game mobile app, or by phone at (800) 554-8685. They can also be purchased in person at a license vendor location, or Fish and Game regional offices during normal business hours.
Demand for nonresident tags is expected to be high and we ask for your patience throughout the day. Hunters should plan accordingly; expect long wait times, system slowness, and a limited number of products available for purchase.
Please note: Resident licenses, tags, and permits will not be available until after the nonresident sale has completed.
