INDIANAPOLIS — The Indiana Department of Natural Resources reminds hunters and anglers that while 2022 licenses are still valid for a couple of months into the new year, 2023 fishing and hunting licenses are available starting in January.
To get a license for 2023, you need to create an account in Access Indiana to log in to your DNR Fish and Wildlife online portal, even if you already have an online account with DNR Fish and Wildlife to purchase licenses.

- Access the CheckIN Game system.
- Apply for reserved hunts.
- Find your Customer ID.
- Register for your harvest information program (HIP) number.
