In general, a permit is not required to import and export firearms and/or ammunition that are not covered by section 1 in the Weapon Act (manually repetable firearms, knives, etc.).

 

Greenland Police can fill out an import and export declaration, as a declaration is a prerequisite for importing and exporting firearms and/or ammunition from many other countries, including Denmark.

 

A permit is required to import and export firearms covered by section 1 in the Weapon Act (fully and semi-automatic firearms, short firearms, etc.) and ammunition. The practice regarding import and export af firearms covered by section 1 is strict.

 

An import and export declaration is free.

An import and export declaration is valid in 3 months from the date of issue of the declaraion.

An import and export declaration does not give permission to hunt in Greenland. You can read more about the subject here. 
The declaration will in most cases be sent by e-mail. In some cases we will send it by mail to a postal adress.
