Step 1: Complete the CORE class. After completing the exam, you will receive a signed Registration Form from your CORE instructor.
Step 2: Get your CORE Certificate. You must send or drop off or mail the CORE Registration Form at the BC Wildlife Federation (BCWF) office. The BCWF office will issue you a CORE certificate. A $30 processing fee is paid to BCWF for this service.
Step 3: Get your Fish and Wildlife ID number. Once you have received your CORE Certificate, you will then need to take your CORE Certificate to the local service BC Service Center or go online here and request a FWID number. There is no cost for the FWID. Before an FWID is issued, you must prove that you are a BC resident and meet the minimum age requirements.
Step 4: Buy a hunting license and tags. You can purchase a license and tags online here, at the nearest BC Service Center, or kind hunting store.
