Fishing licence issuance

Source: BUS Rheinland-Pfalz

If you want to fish, you need a fishing license. This is issued by the municipal administration on request, provided that you have passed a state fishing examination or there are facts that make it unnecessary to take the fisherman's examination (see fisherman's examination).

For fishing, you also need a fishing permit from the fishing license or fishing tenant of the respective body of water.
