Have you ever been in the dilemma where you and your buddies are out duck or goose hunting and someone shoots a banded bird, but you don’t know who? Replica Bands make it so now everyone in your hunting party can have a copy of the band. Replica Bands are also great for when you want to put the original band on your mount and put the replica on your lanyard. If the original bird band is lost or stolen, you can replace it with a replica.
National Band & Tag is the ONLY company authorized to make genuine, authentic replicas as we are the ones that make the original bands used by the USGS.

Replica Bird Bands
HOW TO ORDER:
- You report the band to the USGS Bird Banding Laboratory. They send you a Certificate of Appreciation. (We need a copy of the actual Certificate, not a screenshot of the banding report. It may take a few days to receive your Certificate after reporting it.)
- You submit your Certificate of Appreciation to us and place your order. Click on the “Order Online” button below.
- We then confirm your Certificate with the USGS. Certificates of paid orders will be sent over in batches.
- After we have verified your Certificate with the USGS, your order will be produced and shipped. You then get a band that looks exactly like the one that was on your bird.
