If you wish to purchase and own weapons or ammunition that require a permit, you must apply for a permit from the responsible weapons authority.

The green gun ownership card is necessary if you want to buy a gun that requires a permit. You must apply for the green card at the relevant authority. To receive the green gun ownership card, you must meet certain requirements. If all requirements are met, the green card will be issued to you and a permit to purchase the gun will be entered in the card. The green gun ownership card then also confirms your entitlement to permanently own this gun.

• Identity card or passport (copy)
• Certificate from the shooting sports association, hunting license, proof of endangerment or proof of another need to own a weapon
• Proof of expertise
• Proof of storage, for example a purchase contract for a gun safe or photos of the gun safe and its location
• If necessary, the relevant authority will ask you to submit a medical or psychological report on your mental suitability to own weapons. You must pay for the report yourself and send the original by post to the relevant authority.
