PFBC announces 2026 permits and vouchers available

The Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission (PFBC) announced that boaters and anglers across the Commonwealth can now purchase permits and vouchers for the 2026 season. The sale includes various licenses, boating permits, and vouchers that can be redeemed for fishing licenses or boat registrations later in the year.

Available permits and purchase options

PFBC clarified that permits for different types of watercraft, as well as fishing licenses and combination bundles, are available through authorized vendors and online via the PFBC website. These options allow residents and visitors to prepare ahead for the upcoming fishing and boating season.

Digital convenience and gift opportunities

Digital licenses remain available for anglers who prefer mobile access to their credentials. In addition, PFBC offers vouchers that can be purchased as gifts, enabling recipients to redeem them for 2026 fishing licenses when they become available.

“Pennsylvania’s waterways offer recreation and relaxation year-round, and purchasing early helps support conservation and safety programs,” noted a PFBC spokesperson.

Supporting conservation efforts

Proceeds from fishing and boating permit sales directly fund PFBC’s conservation projects, education initiatives, and safety programs that protect aquatic resources statewide.

Author’s summary: PFBC began selling 2026 boating and fishing permits and vouchers statewide to support conservation and make outdoor recreation planning easier.
