What this is

The medium and big game hunting permit issued by the Ministry of Forestry and Wildlife (MINFOF) governs sport and tourist hunting. It grants the right to kill specific categories of animal species, respecting quotas, designated hunting zones (ZIC), and the hunting season. The medium game hunting permit is issued to those possessing a rifle with a caliber greater than 6 mm and less than 9 mm. It authorizes the hunting of medium-sized species. The big game hunting permit is issued to those possessing large-caliber firearms and authorizes the harvesting of large mammals and medium-sized animals. Obtaining a medium and big game hunting permit requires submitting an application to MINFOF, including a stamped application form, a copy of the firearms license, and a sworn statement attesting to compliance with wildlife regulations.

At the counter

What readers say they paid

The instrument sets a fee. At the counter it is not always that one. Here is what readers report, counted and summed up.

Nobody has reported an amount for this procedure yet.

If you have done it, say what you paid. It is published as counted figures, never as your account of it.

Report what I paid

No name, no number, no link. We refuse those.

We publish how many reports there are, the range and the median. Never your report on its own, never an official's name, never a named office.
