Weapons licences made digital in Denmark
Import and export licences for weapons are granted by the Danish Police as digital licences. This means that licenses no longer carry stamps and signatures. In other words, the authenticity and validity of licences do not depend on police stamps and signatures.Firearms licences can be checked in the Internal Market Information System (IMI) when firearms are to be imported to and exported from the EU.
In case of doubt as to the authenticity and validity of a licence, please feel free to contact the Danish Police at mvjyl-pac-vaaben@politi.dk or telephone number + 45 70 20 14 73. Telephone hours: Monday to Thursday 10am – 3pm and Friday 10am – 1pm. Please note that emails must not contain sensitive data.
