Tour Permits

Tour permits can now be submitted online! No more running to the Scout office to get your tour permit approved before you leave. The new Online Tour Permit allows you to submit a tour permit request and within a single business day, have the approved tour permit returned to you via e-mail!

There are five steps in this process.

• Log on to www.myscouting.org (you will need your BSA membership ID)
• Click on "Tour Permits" to create the tour permit application
• Enter vehicle and training information (enter once and re-use for all of your tour permits!)
• Enter tour details
• Submit

The council olfice will review the electronic submission and either approve it or send it back for additional information. Your approved tour permit will come to you in an e-mail that you can simply print and go!

A short training presentation has been created to help answer additional questions.

NOTE: If you do not see Tour Permit on the left hand-side menu in MyScouting, this indicates that your BSA registration does not show you as a unit leader or unit committee member.

Flying Permit Applications are also available online.

Paper-based tour permits will still be accepted. You can fill-out and print a paper-based tour permit here.
