Falknerjahresjagdschein verlängern für ausländische Jugendliche

If the validity of your foreigner youth falconry licence expires or has already expired and you wish to continue hunting, you must have it extended.

If you would like to hunt in Germany, but you are not yet 18 years old, you can only be issued with a youth falconry hunting licence in your name (minimum age 16 years). If you already have a hunting licence whose validity has expired, you can apply for an extension.

The youth hunting licence entitles the holder to hunt only in the company of a person with custody or a supervisor appointed in writing by the person with custody; the accompanying person must be experienced in hunting.

The youth hunting license does not entitle the holder to participate in group hunts.

You renew your hunting licence at the authority that issued you the hunting licence.

The annual hunting licence shall be valid for a maximum of three consecutive hunting years. The hunting year starts on 01.04. and ends on 31.03.
