Oregon's Department of Fish and Wildlife issues a Disabilities Hunting and Fishing Permit that lets a qualifying person hunt from a parked vehicle off the roadway, have a companion finish a wounded animal, and get help angling or digging clams. The 12-page packet includes the rules and the application. The permit is valid for five calendar years and expires December 31 of the fifth year.
The applicant completes the personal information page and signs the affidavit on the last page. A licensed physician, licensed physician assistant or certified nurse practitioner completes only the criteria pages that apply, initials each qualifying condition, describes it, and signs the practitioner certification with license number.

A form is listed only after its name and number were confirmed on the issuing agency’s or insurer’s own website, or in the form itself. Each entry links to that source. The list was last checked in October 2026. Forms and their requirements change without notice, so check the official page for the current version before you complete one.

A licensed physician, licensed physician assistant or certified nurse practitioner. The practitioner initials yes or no on each qualifying criterion that applies, leaves the others blank, describes the impairment in plain language, and signs a sworn certification with license number. Disabled veterans rated at least 65% can use VA documentation instead.
Five calendar years; it expires on December 31 of the fifth year. Applicants filing after November can ask for the permit to start in January. The permit is not a license or tag, so the holder must still buy the regular hunting or fishing license and tags.
ODFW says most processing delays come from incomplete answers, and incomplete applications are not accepted. The practitioner must initial the qualifying condition and explain how the disability affects hunting or fishing. ODFW may ask for more documentation or a phone interview, so submit 30 days before the tag deadline.
