"Section 50-20-50. The following stamps and permits must be made available throughout the State by the South Carolina Wildlife and Marine Resources Department or its authorized agents for issuance or sale and are issued for the time provided in Section 50-9-20:

(1) marine recreational fishing stamp for residents and nonresidents. The annual fee for the issuance of the stamp is five dollars and fifty cents. Fifty cents may be retained by the issuing agent, and the balance must be paid to the department;

The annual fee for the issuance of the permit is one hundred fifty dollars for vessels licensed to carry six or fewer passengers, two hundred fifty dollars for vessels licensed to carry seven to forty-nine passengers, and three hundred fifty dollars for vessels licensed to carry more than forty-nine passengers. However, the annual fee for the issuance of the permit is forty dollars if the vessel carries only the passengers who hire the vessel."
