Mississippi Lifetime License Information

A Mississippi Lifetime License is a great investment, even for out-of-state hunters. Hunters and fishermen will gain a solid return on value and convenience while helping guarantee generations of hunting and fishing opportunities.

A Lifetime License has cost savings benefits and avoids future license increases. Plus, it saves time and the inconvenience of renewing or purchasing an annual license! 

All Lifetime License fees are put into the Wildlife Endowment Fund. The interest generated by that fund will be used to help pay for wildlife management and enforcement programs, research projects, and educational activities. Your investment today will give you a direct return in Mississippi wildlife, a bonus your children and grandchildren can also enjoy.
