TWRA License Fee Increases and License Structure Proposals Approved

The Tennessee Fish and Wildlife Commission unanimously approved the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency’s (TWRA) operational budget for 2027-28 during its August meetings.
The Commission also approved the TWRA’s license fee increase and license structure proposals.
The individual fee increases varied, with most in the 27-29 percent range. For example, the Resident Annual Hunt/Fish Combo would increase from $33 to $42. The Sportsman License fee would change from $165 to $189.
The new license and permit structure is designed to reduce the complexity of licensing options.
The license structure will be presented to the Joint Government Operations Committee for approval later this year.
