FORMALITIES

Invitation Letter

A non-nominative invitation letter will be available soon.

1. Visitor’s Shotgun Permit

To visit Great Britain with a firearm you will need to apply for a visitor’s firearm or shotgun permit at least 6 weeks in advance. Anyone attempting to enter Great Britain without a visitor’s firearm or shotgun permit will not be allowed to enter Great Britain with their firearms.

The police will refuse to grant a visitor’s permit where there are grounds for believing that the possession of firearms and ammunition in question represent a danger to public safety or to the peace e.g. if the applicant has a criminal history.

PLEASE NOTE: All criminal convictions have to be declared to UK police however old and regardless of whether they are viewed as spent in the applicant’s country of residence.


2. What do visitor’s permits allow?

Under section 17 of the Firearms Act 1968, a visitor to Great Britain may, if granted a visitor’s permit, have in their possession firearms, shotguns or ammunition without holding a certificate.

The holder of a visitor’s shotgun permit may have in his possession, purchase or acquire shotguns and is exempt from the requirement to produce a shotgun certificate when purchasing cartridges (which must contain 5 or more shot, none of which exceeds .36 inches in diameter).

Visitor shotgun permits do not allow the borrowing of shotguns for 72 hours as with UK shotgun certificates.
