I think it all all depends on how long you have been in the state. Call your local DNR office, they should be able to help you out.

Welcome to the forum!!

I'm sure you can get a license for sure. You may have to pay non-res fees, but I know non-us citizens can certainly hunt in the US.

you may also have to take a hunter's safety course, so I'd get to checkin' asap. Generally other states hunting licenses are respected as far as hunter's safety is concerned (although you never know with kookifornia), but whether another country's license will pass the mustard is questionable I would think

I hope you can understand this without needing a translator:D;)

Thank you guys for your opinion, I will go take the hunting safety course.
Thank you

I have the Hunting licence from Czech Republic andI did call DFG. There was some girl and she didn't evenknow that Czech Republic is in Europe and than shetold methat they don't recognize the licence from Europe (only from Canada and South Africa), which is weird.
I live inSan Ramon.
Thanks for your help guys.
