The European Firearms Pass assists EU nationals when travelling with firearms across EU borders, for example to participate in shooting events. As part of the negotiations for Brexit, the UK will discuss with the EU how best to continue cooperation in the field of firearms regulation, which includes the European Firearms Pass, in the best interests of both the UK and the EU.
