If you already have a firearms possession card (WBK) and wish to purchase another firearm requiring a permit, you must apply for this.
Basic information
The permit is issued by the competent authority by means of an entry in the gun ownership card (pre-entry).
If you are a sport shooter and have a green gun ownership card (WBK), you must have your recognized shooting club confirm that you need this weapon to practice your sport.
With the pre-registration, you have one year to acquire a weapon requiring a permit.
In the application for a permit for the further purchase of a firearm, you only need to state what type of firearm and caliber you wish to purchase. Further details, such as the manufacturer and exact model, are not initially required. You only have to provide this information once you have acquired the weapon and have fulfilled your obligation to notify the competent authority of the acquisition of the weapon. The gun dealer must also report the transfer of the weapon to you.
You must prove that you can safely store the weapon you wish to purchase.
Requirements
- You have a green gun ownership card (WBK).
What documents do I need?
- Identity card or passport (copy)
- Weapons possession card (WBK) or hunting license
- If applicable, proof of need from the shooting sports club (only for marksmen with a green firearms license (WBK))
