Extend hunting licence Brandenburg
Responsible authority
The Untere Jagdbehörde of the district (Landkreis) or independent city (kreisfreie Stadt) is responsible for your hunting licence in Brandenburg. The responsible authority is always determined by your main residence, not by the place where hunting is carried out. The Untere Jagdbehörde issues your hunting licence and deals with extensions in Brandenburg. In Brandenburg there are several Untere Jagdbehörden, for example in the districts Prignitz or Potsdam-Mittelmark. Ask your local Untere Jagdbehörde about the exact opening times and submission routes.

Costs and fees
The administrative fee for extending your hunting licence in Brandenburg is between 10,00 EUR and 80,00 EUR. This fee range applies statewide per hunting year and depends on the type of hunting licence. In Brandenburg you can extend an annual hunting licence, a day hunting licence or a youth hunting licence. In addition to the administrative fee, a statutory hunting levy is due, which you must also pay. The specific fees may vary within the framework depending on the Untere Jagdbehörde and the type of hunting licence.
Processing time and lead time
The processing time for your hunting licence varies depending on the Untere Jagdbehörde and the required reliability checks. The electronic information from the Bundeszentralregister usually takes 2 to 4 A working days. Once all documents have been received, the Untere Jagdbehörde can issue your hunting licence at the earliest after 5 A working days. In individual cases, processing may take several weeks, for example if the weapons authority is involved. Submit your application for extension in good time so that you can continue to use your hunting licence without interruption.
