E. Partially Complete Certificates Under a Master File or an Annual Program File

This supplemental application is to be used by applicants who have already established a master file or an annual program file for native species. An individual or business can establish a master file or an annual program file, which allows for the issuance of multiple single-use permits, by submitting the appropriate application form (https://www.fws.gov/forms/3-200-74.pdf) for the requested activity or registration. Once a master file or annual program file has been established, the holder may request any number of additional single-use documents based on the materials on file. These single-use permits are essentially identical (other than the permit number) and will contain specific blank spaces, identified on the face of the permit, to be completed by the holder of the master file or annual program file. To find out if your activities may be conducted under a master file or an annual program file and how to establish such a system, please contact the Division of Management Authority (DMA) or visit our web page at http://www.fws.gov/international/permits/.

PROCESSING FEE: $5.00 per permit

Note: If there have been any changes to the activities authorized under your master file or annual program file please contact DMA prior to submitting this application form. Permits generated through the use of this application are based on information in your file. You may not use this form to make changes to activities authorized under your master file or annual program file.

1. Name and address where you wish the permit to be mailed, if different from page 1. If you would like expedited shipping, please enclose a self-addressed, pre-paid, computer-generated, courier service airway bill. If unspecified, all documents will be mailed via regular mail through the U.S. Postal Service.
