Gunsmiths as well as legal entities authorized to possess or use lethal or non-lethal weapons are required to request the firearms and ammunition manager's approval from the territorial structures for weapons, explosives and dangerous substances, for the persons employed to carry out operations with weapons, essential components and ammunition, as well as those responsible for managing, administering and maintaining the weapons, prior to their access to weapons, essential components and ammunition. In order to obtain the firearms and ammunition manager's approval, the applicant submits a request accompanied by the necessary documents to the General Police Directorate of the Municipality of Bucharest or to the county police inspectorate within whose territorial jurisdiction they have their headquarters or place of business. The firearms and ammunition manager's approval loses its validity if the approved person changes their workplace, in which case the approval procedure must be resumed.*
