Increase in hunting license fees with provisions for future adjustments

June 5, 2026

The Ministry of Interior proposes an increase in hunting licenses by 43 euros, bringing the fee to 120 euros for hunters aged 18-65 years. Additionally, the fee will rise by 5% every four years. For hunters aged 65-80 years, the fee will increase from 43 to 65 euros, while licenses for individuals over 80 will be free. This increase is deemed necessary since the fees have remained unchanged for 21 years. The revenues will be used for game development and wildlife protection.
