Weapons, hunting, and explosives law:

Every permit in the area of weapons, hunting, or explosives law requires prior processing, including a background check. Therefore, a corresponding written application must always be submitted first (by dropping it off at the city office, email, fax, or post).

You are welcome to use our application forms on the homepage to ensure that you provide all the necessary information.

Once the application has been processed, the relevant administrator will contact you and arrange a personal appointment for final processing (entries, renewals, issuance of permits, etc.).

If you have any other concerns, our staff can be reached by phone as follows:
