Activities in connection with explosive substances have a high risk potential. The aim of the Explosives Act is to protect people and property from these dangers.
In order to prevent accidents and misuse, the Explosives Act places high demands on persons who wish to handle explosive substances.
These include the following proofs:
- Age (at least 21 years old)
- Suitability,
- reliability and
- specialist knowledge.
As part of the proof of reliability, information is obtained from other authorities, such as the police, the public prosecutor's office and the constitutional protection authority.
As an entrepreneur, you require a permit to handle and trade the following explosive substances, for example:
- Explosives, for example. Explosives or pyrotechnic sets
- NC powder (nitrocellulose powder) or black powder
- Stage pyrotechnics/technical pyrotechnics
- Category F3 and F4 fireworks,
- Category F2 fireworks listed as requiring a permit in accordance with the First Ordinance to the Explosives Act, e.g. with flashbangs
The official permit ensures that only persons who meet the requirements for safe handling have access to explosive substances.
If necessary, when applying for a commercial permit, the competent authority will ask you for further information on the available storage options for explosive substances.
