Fishing licence for life


Fishing licences are compulsory for fishing in all waters of the state of M-V - this applies from the age of 14. Children under the age of 14 do not require a fishing licence to fish, only a fishing permit (water permit).

A lifetime fishing licence is issued upon application and after passing the fishing licence examination. For the licence to be valid, a fishing tax stamp (annual stamp) must be purchased for each year in which you wish to fish and affixed to the licence.

In addition, every angler must have a fishing licence (water permit), which is available for specific waters as a daily, weekly or annual permit.

 There are no free fishing waters in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern!

In M-V, two documents are always required for fishing: Fishing licence + fishing permit (water map)
