    Default How to import rifles to the US

    Hi friends! how are you all?

    I need some help with something I am not familiar with.
    As some of you know I am from Spain and I moved here to the US (Texas) one year ago because the company I work for sent me here for 3-4 years.
    I am thinking about the possibility of bringing here two of my rifles. I would be really appreciate if anyone could tell me what I need to do to brig the rifles here.

    Thanks.

    Chat with the folks at ATF

    For temporary importation of firearms it is the 6NIA (non immigrant alien form)
    Not sure if they think 3 years is temporary or not.

    Others are listed on the site.
