Travelling with firearms to Spain



Our staff will assist you at Barcelona Airport. Please note that all our hunts start and finish from/in Barcelona.

You will need to provide the following documentation:
• Photocopy & original of the “Certificate of Registration of Effects Taken Abroad” (form 4457).
• Photocopy & original of the Certificate of Gun Importation issued in the
Spanish Consulate. Please, contact them for further information. (List of the Spanish Consulates)

IMPORTANT NOTE:

A separated metallic box is requested to be able to take your ammo back to the US.

 

AIRLINES
We suggest flying direct from the U.S. to Barcelona, to avoid any problem with the rifle in any connection. We recommend Delta Airlines, US Airways & Continental. Find out if your airline has unusual (or ridiculous) firearms policies. Example: KLM, British Airways, etc. Check it with your travel agency or directly to any airline agent.
