Active Duty Licenses: Texas active duty military personnel 
can hunt and fish in the state for free. That's coming up on 
Passport To Texas.


Passport to Texas from Texas Parks and Wildlife. 


It's estimated that Texas has more than 120-thousand active-duty 
military personnel living in the state. And thanks to a recently 
passed legislative bill, all are eligible to hunt and fish in the 
state at no charge.


"This year we have a new license for our armed forces on active duty. 
For the first time we will have a free Super Combo all package 
that will include all of the stamps, just like the regular Super Combo."


Craig Richlen is the Revenue Director for Texas Parks and Wildlife. 
The new Texas Resident Active Duty Military "Super Combo" 
Hunting and All-Water Fishing Package will also be offered to 
active-duty members of the Reserves or National Guard. 


"It's not for retirees or anyone else who is not active duty." 


For a member of the military to qualify for a free "Super Combo," 
he or she must have continuously resided in Texas for more than six 
months before obtaining the license. You must show your military 
ID and a proof of residency to qualify for the complimentary license. 
Hunting and fishing licenses are available at over 2,000 locations 
throughout the state. To learn more, go to our website,
