Game Licensing
The new Wildlife (Game) Regulations 2012 came into effect on 11 September 2012. Please check the Changes to the Victorian Game Licences page to access the latest information that reflects the changes to some licence arrangements that will come into effect on July 2013.
Please telephone 136 186 if you require any further information.
Game Victoria
Under the Wildlife Act 1975, any person wishing to hunt game in Victoria must obtain a Game Licence from Game Victoria, Department of Primary Industries (DPI). Game Licences enable Game Victoria to enforce the hunting laws, track trends in hunting demands and identify the needs of hunters. Licensing also provides an avenue to communicate important information to licensed hunters.
"Game" includes those species of duck, deer, quail, pheasants and partridges declared to be game in Victoria.
Applying For A Game Licence
Anyone wishing to hunt game in Victoria, including juniors (12-17 years) and international visitors, must hold a current Game Licence. A range of licence types is available, depending on the requirements of the individual hunter. For a full listing, please refer to the Game Licence form (below). The Game Licence must be endorsed for the appropriate type(s) of game that you wish to hunt and only permits you to hunt game in Victoria. Persons less than 12 years old are not permitted to use a firearm or to hunt or take game.
Should you wish to apply for a Game Licence, please complete the Game Licence application form. Alternatively, contact the Customer Service Centre on 136 186 to have an application form sent to you by post or email.
Application for a Game Licence
Game licence applications may be lodged by mail as described in the application form or over the counter at most DPI and DSE offices, between 9 am and 5 pm, Monday to Friday. Upon receipt of your payment, your application will be processed and a Game Licence sent to you in the mail. The turn-around time for Game Licence applications is approximately three weeks, however, delays may occur during peak periods.
What if I want to hunt ducks?
Before you can hunt game birds including duck, you need to pass the Waterfowl Identification Test. This test ensures that only those hunters able to demonstrate adequate identification skills are permitted to hunt ducks in Victoria.
Find out more about the Waterfowl Identification Test.
What if I want to hunt Sambar Deer with scent-trailing hounds?
Before you can hunt Sambar deer with hounds, you need to pass the Hound Hunting Test. This test is designed to ensure that hunters using scent-trailing hounds to hunt Sambar Deer are aware of their legal, ethical and safety requirements when hunting.

Renewing your Game Licence
If you have an existing Game Licence, a renewal notice will be sent to you in the mail approximately six weeks before your licence is next due to expire. Should you wish to renew your licence, please follow the instructions on the renewal form. Your new licence will be sent to you after receipt of payment. The turn-around time for Game Licence renewals is approximately three weeks, however, delays may occur during peak periods. Please note that early payment of Game Licence renewals will facilitate the early issue of a renewed licence.
Have you changed your address?
If you change your address, you must advise the Game Licensing Service within fourteen days after doing so. Your Game Licence should be returned for amendment, together with written notification advising of your new residential address and new postal address (if different from the new residential address). Your written notification may be either a letter or a completed amendment form.
Should you wish to amend your address on your Game Licence, please complete the form attached below. Alternatively, contact the Customer Service Centre on 136 186 to have an amendment form sent to you by post or email.
You will then need to send your notification, together with your outdated Game Licence to the Game Licensing Service, GPO Box 4440, Melbourne 3001. A new licence with your updated details will be sent to you free of charge.
Providing your new address also ensures that you will receive a copy of the Victorian Hunting Guide and any other information that the Department needs to send to you.
How do I amend my licence type?
Should you wish to change your licence type, please complete the form Amendment of a Game Licence. Alternatively, contact the Customer Service Centre on 136 186 to have an amendment form sent to you by post or email.
You will then need to complete the form and send it to the Game Licensing Service, GPO Box 4440, Melbourne 3001, together with a cheque or money order for the fee shown in the Amendment form. Upon receipt of payment, an updated licence will be sent to you.
What if I lose my Game licence?
If you lose your Game Licence, you will need to send a signed Statutory Declaration stating that you have lost your licence, together with a cheque or money order for the requisite replacement fee, to Revenue and Contract Administration, GPO Box 4440, Melbourne 3001. To find out the current replacement fee contact the DPI Customer Service Centre on 136 186. Upon receipt of payment, a new licence will be sent to you.
Hunting On A Receipt
If you pay for your Game Licence in person at a DPI or DSE office, you will be issued with a receipt. This receipt is deemed to be an 'interim licence' and you can hunt with this until you receive your licence in the mail. If you sent a cheque or money order by mail and you have confirmed that this has been cashed, you may hunt using your cheque stub or money order stub as proof of payment. This applies to payment receipts for all new, renewed or amended licences.
Firearms Licences
To possess, use or carry a firearm in Victoria, you must hold and carry a current Firearms Licence issued by Victoria Police or any equivalent current interstate Firearms Licence. In addition, all firearms must be registered. This includes all shotguns and rifles.
For information on Firearms Licences and the possession, use and ownership of firearms, contact your Regional Firearms Officer or the Licensing Services Branch, Victoria Police, on 1300 651 645.
Hunters under the age of 18
From September 11, 2012 ‘Juniors’ aged between 12 and 17 can obtain a Game Licence free of charge. A “Game Licence application form” must be completed but there will be no cost.
‘Juniors’ who lodge an application in person at any DPI or DSE office will be given an ‘Interim Licence’ to enable them to hunt immediately.
Hunters who are non residents of Australia
Proceed as outlined above for application of game licence and undertaking the appropriate tests.
Changes to some licensing arrangements for international visitors will take effect on 1 July 2013. However, the new initiative to not charge fees for juniors has already taken effect. |
