vessel hard card

DID YOU KNOW?!

The DNR offers a boat registration hard card.

We know, its cold and snowy, but we can't be the only ones wishing summer was here already!

With boat renewals happening this year, we wanted to remind our customers about the registration hard card. You can upgrade a boat registration to a stylish, credit card style registration. The card is $5, one registration per card.

Don't forget, registrations for boats will expire April 30, 2022.

THIS YEAR'S NEW HARD CARD DESIGN

Beginning this year, hunters who pursue migratory game birds will be required to register for the Harvest Information Program (HIP). Migratory birds include ducks, geese, coots, doves woodcock, rails and snipe. Any hunter can register either through the Go Outdoors Iowa app on their smartphone or on the DNR website.
