Fish Buying, Processing and Peddling Licenses

Where can I get a Fish Buyers, Processors or Peddlers License?

All buyers of fish and shellfish must obtain a license on an annual basis. These licenses must be obtained on a species or species group basis at each port where the buyer purchases the product. All processors must obtain a processing license on an annual basis. Peddlers must also obtain a license yearly.

Fish Buyers Licenses are broken down into six categories:

  1. Lobster
  2. Other Crustaceans
  3. Groundfish
