ACCESS AND BACKGROUND CHECKS

Prior to purchasing a FHL Hunting or Fishing Permit, everyone, without a Department of Defense (DoD)-issued ID Card, must complete a criminal background check through FHL Security. Anyone with a valid Common Access Card (CAC) or Military Privileges Card is already vetted to be on FHL, and they simply need to email the Hunt and Fish Program a photo of their DoD-issued ID.

 

HOW TO GET VETTED

Email your Access Request Form with a copy of your acceptable photo ID as attachments to security at: usarmy.hunterliggett.id-readiness.mbx.des-vcc@army.mil

 

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

  • The 2023-24 Access Request Form (←click link) is required for the next hunt year. Security will not accept older forms.
  • Do not send vetting documents to the Hunt and Fish Program. That will delay your processing time.
  • Vetting and firearm registration can take up to 30 days. Plan accordingly.

 

ACCEPTABLE IDs

  • Starting on 7 May 2025, FHL will no longer be able to accept IDs that are not Real ID Act Compliant.
  • For more information about the federal Real ID Act of 2005, visit the Homeland Security's website at https://www.dhs.gov/real-id. Acceptable forms of identification can be found at Acceptable IDs.
