A 225 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Reduces residency requirement for resident hunting licenses from six months to 60 days.

This bill reduces the residency requirement for New Jersey residents to obtain a hunting license from six months to 60 days. It directly affects individuals who live in New Jersey but haven't met the current six-month domicile requirement. The change modifies Section 23:3-4 of the state code to update the residency period for all resident hunting licenses (including firearm, bow and arrow, and trapping licenses), making it easier for new residents to qualify. The bill does not alter fees, license types, or other provisions related to hunting or fishing.
