AZ Lifetime License questions

Recommended Posts

Hi all! So while I was hunting deer one of the other hunters other at camp suggested I buy a lifetime license through AZ. How can I obtain one? Also if I were to purchase one and move to another state in the future would I still be able to have that lifetime license to put in yearly? If so would it be still considered resident or nonresident? Thank you!

If i remeber correctly the cost is kind of pro rated based on age.  If you leave az you still have to pay out of state cost for the tag but the huge benefit is if you move out of AZ you are not limeted to the 10% cap that other out of staters have.  So even though you pay full cost for the tag you have the much better odds of drawing tags then the out of state guys do.

That is perfect! Hunting here is priceless!

I have one and the convince for me is huge. Also the fishing and small game hunting is for life. Big Game tags at a non-resident rate if you leave the state isn't so bad, you're a resident of another state after all. I recommend buying one if able.

I've had a Pioneer one for nine years now. It covers everything that the combo hunt & fish does. Unfortunately, I can no longer do anything. 🤣

According to this if you move from AZ, all you would have to purchase is a non resident tag. The license would still be valid. I bought one this year. If I would have waited until I was 70, I could have gotten a Pioneer license, and I would have paid a yearly fee equaling what I paid for the lifetime license. The only way that I'll come out ahead is if the license fees increase over the next 8 years, which I was pretty sure they would.

You pay out of state tag costs but you are not put into the 10% cap.

That must be old because they cost a little more and now and are different for fishing. I bought one years ago (hunt only) but now have the veterans one. I did buy my wife and daughter one. It does make it easier when putting in for hunts every year.
