I'm going to be heading back to the UK to do some deer hunting with my friends in the UK.
I want to bring my own firearm this time and not have to borrow one.
My friend knows how to get from the UK to here with a firearm but not the other way around.
What do I need to have filled out or filed and with whom?
 
I’ve done it a couple of times but my buddy is with Holland & Holland and they handled the permits.
 
Very straightforward your uk friends can get the visitors import paperwork via their local police force online. Cost around £20
 
Thats cool!
Thanks for the info guys.
 
As above, your friend applies for a visitor permit. Very straight forward and painless.

Hello! I saw your post from last year about a missing crate from your hunt in Moz. I am curious how that all turned out? We (my fiancé and I) also hunted in Moz in 2024 and the trophies are being shipped with Hunters Services Limitada. We have some concerns on whether we will get the trophies home or not. May I ask who you hunted with?
