Exact is independent. We are not a government body and we do not carry out any procedure on your behalf.

What this is

The small game hunting permit issued by the Ministry of Forestry and Wildlife (MINFOF) authorizes the hunting of furred and feathered game. Permitted game includes wild animals considered less threatened, such as small rodents, birds, and other small reptiles. This permit is granted only to legal owners of smoothbore shotguns or rifles with a caliber of less than 6 mm. To obtain this document, the applicant must submit a file to the departmental or regional delegation of the Ministry of Forestry and Wildlife (MINFOF), including documents such as the stamped application form and proof of legal firearm ownership.

What readers say they paid

The law sets a fee. At the counter it is not always the one you pay. Here is what readers report, counted and summarised.

Nobody has reported an amount for this procedure yet.

If you have done it, say what you paid. We publish the figures together, never your account on its own.

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.
