Licence Extensions for 2022

DFO advises fish harvesters that fishing licences for 2022 may not be available until after the first few weeks of January 2022. Those fish harvesters who wish to fish during the first weeks of January 2022 must first have their 2021 fishing licences amended by a DFO Fishery Officer or a Licensing Officer to extend their licence into 2022.

Fish harvesters are advised that before the start of any fishing trip in 2022, they are to place a request in NOLS (https://fishing-peche.dfo-mpo.gc.ca), with a copy of their 2021 Licence Document attached for a Licensing Officer to amend the licence end date. This will allow harvesters to continue fishing while they are awaiting their 2022 licence through the National Online Licensing System (NOLS).
