If you, as a citizen, transfer weapons and/or ammunition requiring a permit, you must notify the competent authority within two weeks.

If you transfer your firearm and/or ammunition requiring a permit to another person, you must notify the competent firearms authority within two weeks.

You do not have to report if you

  • hand over essential parts of the weapon to have embellishment work or similar work carried out and then receive them back after the work has been completed,
  • leave weapons and/or ammunition in the context of a training and work relationship,
