You can purchase a license as a gift online at ODFW’s website, at an ODFW office that sells licenses or at a license sales agent. Be prepared to give the hunter’s or angler’s full name and date of birth (day, month, year). If the person has previously had a license, make sure you have their ODFW hunter/angler ID number, which is found at the top of the license. If you are purchasing a license for someone who has never had a license, you will have to provide his or her social security number in compliance with Federal and State law.
