Taupō district fishing licences for New Zealand residents
Buy a New Zealand resident licence to fish in the Lake Taupō district.

We are aware of a technical problem, where emails confirming licence purchases are not being sent. Anglers can still buy licences and go fishing. If you would like a manual receipt confirming your transaction, email fishlicence@doc.govt.nz.
