Good day,

Are there documents that you should not leave camp without? I'm assuming that there will documents that are required for trophy import, export, etc... Any information on what I should ask for or should not leave without, would be greatly appreciated. Forgive me if this has been posted somewhere else, but I haven't been able to locate it.

Regards,

Mike
 
Mike,
You should never leave camp without a copy of your hunting license ( PH register) and your invoice.
All the other paper work will come with your trophies.
 
While traveling in different countries, your letter of invite and your rifle permit is usually handy if you encounter a road block checking for papers. Some times your game scout will go over this with your PH.


I always put mine in the pouch in my soft case, so it is handy.
 
You will not need the letter of invite or a rifle permit if you hire (rent) a rifle from your outfitter/PH.
 
If you are talking about departure when your trip is over, Rob covered it.
If you are touring the country after the Safari and have your firearms, obviously you had better be in possession of your firearms permit.

Robert,

Thank you for the reply. That's what I though, but I don't want any problems before, during or after my first trip over.

Scott,

Thank you for the information, this trip I will be bringing a rifle. But that is information I certainly may need in the future.

Brickburn,

Thank you for the reply. I was talking about departure, sorry I didn't make that clear. Thanks again.

Cheers,

Hello,

Am I reading your post correctly to say that the Tsavo rifle will be coming out with a composite stock later this year? I ask because I had been looking very hard for a Tsavo, but if there is going to be a composite stock model I will wait for that.

Thank you for your time,

Andrew

Saw your post. Nice. Denver too. Genesee area (just off 70) if ever up this way. Alternatively, do you have a membership at GGC? Whatever, you'll have a wonderful time in Africa. Enjoy.
