Deer and Game Hunting

Deer and Game hunting licences on Coillte properties are tendered annually, usually in May. The available licences are tendered by Coillte on the Habitat Area Management System (HAMS) platform.

Licences may be awarded for a 5-year term subject to compliance with Licence conditions and are re-tendered at the end of that 5-year period. If you wish to tender for a hunting licence please sign up for a HAMS account at the following link:- Register (hams.online).  

Once registered, available licences can be viewed and tendered for on this platform within the tender window .

Updates on the tender dates will be advertised on the Coillte website under DEER AND GAME HUNTING
