NOTICE of Residency and Registration (new and renewal) compliance – effective October 1, 2018
Residents and non-residents may obtain hunting and fishing licenses from the Town Office or any Agent for the State of Maine Inland Fisheries & Wildlife Department. For more information and pricing visit the IF&W website http://www.maine.gov/ifw/.
Please be prepared to show photo ID and proof of residency.
NOTICE FOR ALL IF&W/MOSES TRANSACTIONS
Proof of residency is currently, and will continue to be, required for ALL transactions (licensing, registration, AND renewals). There are the 4 approved “Proofs of Residency” for IF&W licenses/registrations. You must produce ONE of the following documents and meet ALL 4 criteria:
- Valid Maine Driver’s License or Maine State ID
- Active Maine voter registration.
- Valid State Maine BMV vehicle registration.
- Current and compliant Maine Income tax payment.
Non-resident licenses/registrations are available for non-residents.
NEW/USED BILL OF SALE for any recreational vehicle (ATV, snowmobile, boat, jet ski, etc.) must include the following information:
- Vehicle Serial Number/ VIN (year, make and model must be known, but not necessarily on the bill of sale).
- Seller name and address.
- Buyer name and address.
PLEASE BE AWARE: Bills of sale lacking any of the above information will not be accepted and therefore those vehicles cannot be registered.
RE-REGISTRATIONS
It is required that you either bring in the expired registration, OR have a written note with serial &/or registration number, OR that you can verbally recite the registration number &/or serial number associated with the vehicle you wish to make current. We are no longer to search for vehicles to re-register using owner name or MOSES ID.
We understand that there may be some confusion and/or inconvenience involved with this process. We appreciate your understanding and your support of compliance with these laws, which are in place to protect the rights of all sports people in the State of Maine.
