Persons who legally possess lethal weapons under the Law and wish to travel with them to member states must first apply to the competent police authority that issued the firearm permit for the issuance of the European firearms passport and must submit for this purpose a file containing the following documents: - a standard application form, the model of which is provided in Annex No. 14; - two color photographs, size 4x5 cm; - the applicant's identity document, in original and copy; - the applicant's firearm permit, in original and copy. For the issuance of the European firearms passport, the club or sports association shall submit to the competent police authority an application accompanied by the following documents: - sports identity certificate, issued by the Ministry of Youth and Sports, as well as affiliation to one of the specialized national sports federations, in original and copy; - the authorization for possession and use of weapons, in original and copy; - for each athlete subject to the application, a file containing the following documents: - the documents provided in art. 52 par. (1) let. a)-c); - valid sports shooter's card for the current year, in original and copy; - a document showing that the shooting weapon to be registered in the European firearms passport is in the possession of the athlete, according to the Law, in original and copy. - power of attorney regarding the person submitting the documents. If the athletes are minors, their weapons are registered, upon request, in the European firearms passport belonging to the delegation leader. The European firearms passport gives the holder the right to travel within the territory of member states with the weapons and, as the case may be, the corresponding ammunition registered in this document, only to the extent that the possession of the weapons registered in this document is permitted in the state to which they intend to travel or, as the case may be, if authorized by the competent authorities of that state to introduce those weapons into its territory. The European firearms passport is granted for a validity of 5 years, a period that can be extended for another 5 years. The European firearms passport is withdrawn in case of cancellation or suspension of the right to possess, carry and use firearms. The theft of the European firearms passport must be reported within 48 hours from the moment it is discovered to the police authority in whose territorial jurisdiction it was found, whereas the loss, destruction or deterioration must be reported to the police authority that issued it.*
