Effective December 15, 2023, an individual is only eligible to acquire and import a handgun if they:

hold an Authorization to Carry for personal protection or lawful occupation (working in a remote wilderness area or trapping); or

train, compete or coach in a handgun shooting discipline that is on the programme of the International Olympic Committee or the International Paralympic Committee, and the individual provides a letter to a chief firearms officer from a provincial or national sport shooting governing body indicating:

that the individual trains, competes or coaches in such a discipline;

the specific discipline in which the individual trains, competes or coaches; and

that the handgun that the individual seeks to acquire is necessary for training, competing or coaching in that specific discipline.

Businesses are allowed to acquire and register handguns provided that they have the appropriate privileges on their firearms licence to acquire handguns (restricted and/or prohibited).

In order to import a handgun, a business, or an individual who qualifies for an exemption, requires an Import Permit issued by Global Affairs Canada. For information, please contact the Export Controls Operations Division of Global Affairs Canada at: 343-203-4331.
