Transition period for the third Weapons Law Amendment Act ends on September 1, 2021

As a result of the implementation of the EU Firearms Directive, certain firearms, weapon parts and magazines were banned or made subject to a permit requirement with the "Third Weapons Law Amendment Act" of February 17, 2020. The obligation to register does not apply to old decommissioned weapons that were deactivated before June 28, 2018. Individual parts of these weapons are also not subject to registration as long as they remain part of an old decommissioned weapon. This reporting obligation only comes into effect when the weapon changes hands (e.g. inheritance, sale, etc.). Owners of new decommissioned weapons (from 28 June 2018), salute weapons (conversions of real firearms to weapons that use cartridge ammunition) can still hand them in to the police until 1 September 2021 or have their possession legalized by reporting them to the weapons authority. Arrow launchers (crossbows are excluded) are also subject to registration until September 1, 2021.
