Nonresident Waterfowl Licenses (For goose, duck, merganser, coot, swan) A nonresident waterfowl license costs $85 for a zone-restricted license, or $125 for a license that allows hunting in more than one of North Dakota's three waterfowl zones. Hunters must also purchase a $2 Nonresident Hunting, Fishing, and Furbearer Certificate and a $13 General Game and Habitat License. Additionally, a $15 federal migratory bird stamp (duck stamp) is needed (not required for those under age 16). If you are planning to hunt swan, you will need, in addition to the licenses listed above, a swan license, which is available by lottery and costs $25 to successful applicants You will not need a small game license to hunt waterfowl. A nonresident waterfowl license is good for a 7-day period in Zone 1, which is the waterfowl hunting zone where The Bison Ranch is located. Since the ranch also has land located in Zone 3, it is best, when applying for licensing, to choose ZONE 1 CONCURRENT WITH ZONE 3 when you fill out your license application. Nonresident waterfowl hunting licenses are issued only through the department's Bismarck office, over the Internet and by telephone. at 1-800-406-6409.
