Frank,

You can get it online (https://nyfgisales.appsolgrp.com/fgnyia/html/index.jsp) only if you have had one before.

* Internet customers who have previously held a NYS sporting license will need their Customer ID Number which can be found on the previous year's license.
You can call and get one @ 1-86-NY-DECALS (1-866-933-2257).

In my opinion, get a passport if you want to fish US waters. You don't want to mess with border patrols with out the required documentation.

Cheers,

Mike
