Registering a Turkey Online

Hunters may opt to register their birds online and will be asked to provide all the same information online as they would if registering at a physical location. The tag that is issued with the hunter's turkey license must be securely affixed to the bird as no official leg seal will be issued.

Prior to starting the online registration process, hunters should have the following information readily available:

• Turkey license information
• License plate number of the vehicle used while hunting
• Town and Wildlife Management Unit where the turkey was harvested
• Sex of the bird
• Age of the bird (adult vs. juvenile)
• Weight of the bird (to the nearest 1/4 pound)
• Beard length (to the nearest 1/4 inch)
• Spur lengths (to the nearest 1/16 inch)

Physical Registration Stations

NHFG continues to work with registration stations throughout the state to provide local resources for hunters to register their birds. Some stations have transitioned to an online registration platform while others will continue to complete paper registrations. The same information will be collected as in previous years. The station attendant will give the hunter a turkey confirmation card that contains the confirmation number of the registered turkey. 

Prior to entering a registration station, you should have your turkey hunting license in hand, know the license plate number of the vehicle used while hunting as well as the town and WMU that the bird was harvested, in order to expedite the registration process. Some registration stations may have limited hours, therefore,  hunters should call ahead to find out if their local registration station is open .For the most up to date list of registration stations in New Hampshire, visit  Deer and Turkey Check Stations in New Hampshire.
