How do I apply for a Firearms Dealer Licence?
A firearms dealer licence issued under the Firearms Act 1996 authorises the dealer to possess, manufacture, convert, acquire, supply, repair, maintain or test firearms or firearm parts. There are three types of firearms dealer licence:
- a firearms dealer
- a theatrical armourer
- a club armourer
The links to the right provide information on each of these licences, including what each licence authorises and the legislative requirements for each licence.
