The next sequential 130 hunters on the original, official elk multi-season draw list will have an opportunity to buy the remaining tags
OLYMPIA – Some deer and elk hunters who bought a multi-season permit application this year will have a chance to buy one of 2,369 remaining multi-season deer tags and 130 remaining multi-season elk tags starting Aug. 21.
The next sequential 130 hunters on the original, official elk multi-season draw list will have an opportunity to buy those remaining tags. The original multi-season draw is being used to prevent large gatherings at retail locations.
The 130 winners of the remaining elk tags will receive an email from WDFW letting them know they are eligible to buy a tag. Hunters are encouraged to make sure they have a valid email address in their WILD account. Once notified, there is no deadline for those newly eligible individuals to buy their tag.
The 2,369 remaining deer tags will be available on a first-come, first-served basis starting at 9 a.m. on Wednesday, Aug. 21. There will not be a purchase deadline for deer multi-season tags; they will remain for sale until the tag limit is reached or most of the deer hunting seasons are over.
Once sales open, multi-season deer tags will be available to purchase online or at authorized license dealers throughout the state. WDFW regional offices and the headquarters office in Olympia are also open for license sales.
Hunters who want to buy a multi-season tag must have purchased a 2024 multi-season permit application. Hunters who already have a 2024 general season transport tag will need to surrender it to WDFW or a license dealer within five days of purchasing a multi-season tag, per state law.
Multi-season deer tags are $139.10 and multi-season elk tags are $182. Tag costs are the same for residents and non-residents. Hunters with multi-season tags can hunt all three weapon choices (modern firearm, muzzleloader, and archery), season permitting.
