Hunting license of a unified federal standard. Registration of a new type of hunting license


What rights does a hunting license give?

A hunting license is the main document for any hunter. What rights does it give?

  • A hunting license gives the right to purchase weapons for hunting purposes. A hunting license is submitted when applying for a license for a hunting weapon. Without a hunting license, you can purchase a weapon only for self-defense or for sports, but you will be able to shoot from it only in shooting galleries and at specially equipped shooting ranges, but you will not be able to go hunting with it.
  • A hunting license gives the right to obtain a license and a hunting permit. Without them you have no right to hunt.

For these reasons, if you decide to become a hunter, you must obtain a hunting license.

What happened?

The Ministry of Natural Resources has developed a bill that complicates the procedure for obtaining a hunting license. The authors of the document suggest:

  • In order for those wishing to obtain a hunting license to be checked for knowledge of the hunting minimum requirements (a set of minimum necessary knowledge on the biology of game animals, timing and methods of hunting, safety measures when handling weapons, liability for violating hunting rules).
  • This will become a more stringent procedure compared to the one that is in effect now. At the moment, to receive a hunting license, you just need to sign that you have read the minimum hunting requirements.

If the bill passes, people with valid hunting licenses will not have to take the exam. It will only apply to new hunters.

According to the Ministry of Labor, they are also looking into the issue of creating schools or courses for future hunters.

Hunting ticket

Published in Weapons on March 28

The topic of this publication is devoted to the issuance of hunting licenses of a single federal standard and covers everything related to the questions: How to obtain a Hunting license? What is needed for that? What documents are needed? How much does it cost?

So, some brief information for those who are faced with the issue of obtaining a hunting license for the first time. A hunting license is the main document of a hunter. Without it, you will not be able to participate in hunting and obtain a license. In addition, hunting is inextricably linked with the use of firearms, the free sale of which is prohibited in our country.

In order to be able to purchase, store and use hunting weapons, you must first obtain a hunting license. If a weapon is purchased exclusively for self-defense, then a hunting license is not required in this case, but you will be able to use the weapon only in special shooting ranges and shooting ranges. Therefore, the issue of obtaining a hunting license sooner or later begins to worry many novice hunters.

Since July 1, 2011, there have been changes not only in the legislation regulating self-defense fighters; since July 1, 2011, a new procedure for issuing and canceling a hunting license of a unified federal standard has also been in effect. The main innovation is that hunters will no longer need to extend the validity of their ticket and exchange it for a new one after 5 years. The new type of hunting license has no expiration date and is valid throughout Russia. The appearance of the document itself has changed slightly: it has only four pages (previously there were up to 8). The green cover depicts a coat of arms with the inscription “Russian Federation” and “hunting license” in the middle:

Previously, there was no unified information base and if, for example, a court deprives a person of the right to hunt and confiscates one hunting license from him, he could immediately issue himself another. Now such an information base is being created. Nowadays you can often come across the abbreviation OBEFO - it means a hunting license of a unified federal standard.

So, how to get a hunting license of a unified federal standard? What is needed for this and what documents are required?

The issuance of a hunting license of a unified federal standard is carried out by the Departments of Natural Resources Management and Environmental Protection. The issuance of a hunting license is currently absolutely free!

A hunting license of a unified federal standard (hunting license) is issued to individuals who have civil legal capacity in accordance with civil law, who do not have an outstanding or unexpunged conviction for committing an intentional crime and who have familiarized themselves with the requirements of the hunting minimum. At the same time, the hunter does not need to confirm the absence of an outstanding criminal record, which saves him from the need to go to the internal affairs bodies for certificates. All you have to do is show up at the Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Protection closest to your place of registration and provide a number of documents.

A hunting license is issued within 5 working days from the date the service receives the application and documents - this is what the law says. However, the actual production time for a hunting license of a unified federal standard is 10-14 days.

So where to start? The first step is to find out the coordinates of government authorities authorized to issue hunting tickets of a single federal standard. The main body in matters of game management is currently the Ministry of Natural Resources and Ecology of the Russian Federation (https://www.mnr.gov.ru). In Moscow, these functions are assigned to the Department of Natural Resources Management and Environmental Protection of the City of Moscow (https://www.dpioos.ru/eco/ru/). Those living in the Moscow region to obtain hunting tickets must contact the Ministry of Agriculture and Food of the Moscow Region (https://msh.mosreg.ru/vidacha_annulir/) or local hunting farms, for example, residents of the Voskresensky district can contact the Voskresensky hunting farm (https://www.vrooir.ru/contacts/). If you need another territorial district, then you need to refer to the list - Contact information of government authorities of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation authorized to issue hunting tickets of a unified federal standard ().

Reception of applicants for hunting tickets is carried out on the territory of the city of Moscow at the following addresses:

  1. Central Administrative District of Moscow, Shmitovsky proezd, 43 (metro station, 1905 Goda street); telephone
  2. South-Eastern Autonomous District of Moscow, 1st st. Entuziastov, 12A, left entrance, 4th floor (Aviamotornaya metro station); phone: (495) 673-06-98
  3. North-Eastern Autonomous District of Moscow, st. Kargopolskaya, 17, entrance 4 (metro station Otradnoye); telephone
  4. Eastern Administrative District of Moscow, st. Buzheninova, 12, 3rd entrance, 5th floor (metro station Elektrozavodskaya, metro station Preobrazhenskaya Square); telephone

List of documents required for registration of hunting tickets:

  1. two personal photographs in black and white or color, size 25x35 mm with a clear image of the face strictly from the front without a headdress (photos can be carefully cropped using standard 3x4 ;));
  2. a copy of the main identification document;
  3. a hunting license or membership hunting license issued before 07/01/2011, the validity of which has not expired (if you are receiving a hunting license for the first time, then you do not need this item);
  4. application for a hunting license;
  5. consent to the processing of personal data (may be present on the application form as a separate paragraph)

If you live in Moscow in the North-Eastern Administrative District, you can download the current application form for a hunting license (,


). For everyone else I can suggest.

For those who still have an old-style hunting license in their hands, I would like to add that hunting tickets and membership hunting tickets that were issued before July 1, 2011 and which have not expired remain valid until July 1, 2012. Thus, the period for exchanging hunting tickets and membership hunting tickets for a single federal standard ticket is 1 year from July 1, 2011 to July 1, 2012.

From July 2012, anyone who goes hunting with an old-style ticket will be considered a violator of the law. Throughout the entire territory of the Russian Federation, only new certificates will begin to be valid - a hunting license of a unified federal standard.

At the end, I recommend looking at the teaching materials for hunters. I wish you good luck in obtaining a hunting license of a unified federal standard, and happy hunting everyone!
