The possession of firearms requires an official permit. As a rule, this permit is only issued to hunters, sport shooters and in the case of inheritance.
For the application for a permit as a collector or for other purposes, further requirements are necessary.

Fundamental information on weapons law can be found in the Weapons Act.
