From the ND Game and Fish Department:
Note:
North Dakota law requires
persons born after 1961 to complete a certified hunter education
course and show proof of certification when purchasing or applying
for hunting licenses. Official courses offered by other states
and Canadian provinces meet these requirements.
Make sure you are HIP
if you are hunting waterfowl!
HIP is short for Migratory Bird Harvest Information Program.
It allows state and federal wildlife agencies to track the harvest
of migratory birds.
If you hunt ducks, geese, mourning
dove, snipe, tundra swan, sandhill crane, coot, or woodcock in
North Dakota, you must register with the National Migratory
Bird Harvest Information Program each year before hunting these
species. Even if you are registered in your own state,
but plan to hunt as a nonresident in North Dakota, you must register.
It's easy! To register with HIP:
By telephone: Before your license to hunt is legal
you must register by calling toll free 1-888-634-4798. After
answering a brief survey, you will receive a HIP registration
number which must be recorded on your fishing, hunting and furbearer
certificate
