        (a)  General rule.--The commission may make available, at its
     offices and through its issuing agents, vouchers for licenses
     and permits that may be purchased on behalf of a third party.
     The voucher shall be in the format prescribed by the commission
     and shall contain the following information:
            (1)  A voucher number.
            (2)  The identifying number of the issuing agent.
            (3)  The type of license or permit for which the voucher
        may be redeemed.
            (4)  The date of issuance.
            (5)  The date of expiration.
        (b)  Fees.--A person purchasing a voucher shall pay the fees
     for the type of license or permit being purchased and the
     issuing agent fee as provided in section 2715 (relating to
     license, permit and issuing agent fees) unless otherwise exempt
     from such fees under this title.
        (c)  Redemption.--
            (1)  The voucher shall only be redeemed for the type of
        license or permit indicated on the voucher and for which the
        applicable fees have been paid by the purchaser of the
        voucher.
            (2)  A voucher must be redeemed prior to its expiration
        date. No issuing agent fee shall be charged at the time of
        redemption.
            (3)  A voucher shall be redeemed by any issuing agent
        regardless of where the voucher was purchased.
            (4)  At the time of redemption, the bearer of a voucher
        shall establish that he meets the eligibility requirements
        for the type of license indicated on the voucher and the
        issuing agent that redeems the voucher shall secure positive
        proof of identification, residency and age from the bearer.
        (d)  Restrictions.--
            (1)  The bearer of a voucher is subject to all
        restrictions relating to the issuance, denial or revocation
        of a license or permit provided in this title or any other
        title, law or regulation.
            (2)  A voucher does not constitute a fishing license or
        permit, and it is unlawful to use a voucher in lieu of a
        fishing license or permit.
        (e)  Regulations.--The commission may promulgate regulations
     to implement this section.
        (f)  Penalties.--Any person violating this section commits a
     summary offense of the first degree. Any person committing a
     second or subsequent violation of this section in a 12-month
     period commits a misdemeanor of the second degree. Any person
     violating the regulations promulgated under this section commits
     a summary offense of the second degree.
