Permit and Authorization Service Bureau
The Permit and Authorization Service Bureau is experiencing delays in processing permits and licences due to the high volumes of applications. The applications are being processed in date order of receipt.
The Permit and Authorization Service Bureau (PASB) is responsible for the administration of Fish and Wildlife Permits, Commercial Licences and BC Parks' Park Use Permits.
Permits and commercial licences remain a legal requirement, ensuring that environmental standards are not compromised. We continue to strive to provide fair, consistent and timely services to all our clients.
Please note we have a new look to our website and hope that you find it more informative and easier to navigate.
