Every individual applying for a license must have with them at the time of registration
a valid drivers license (drivers license must match boat owners
identification), boat documentation/registration and the license fee (cash and checks are
accepted, credit cards and out-of-state checks are not accepted). To be issued a tax
number, the individual must have a current shrimping license from another state.
