Ukrainians are actively applying for weapons, and most of them are approved . In eight months, from June last year, when the Unified Register of Firearms was launched, to February 2024, 226 thousand applications for possession were received, of which 93% were approved – 210 thousand
The number of applications for permission to own weapons is growing over time. During the three months of the registry’s initial operation, more than 57 thousand applications were received, with 87% approval. The next five months showed an increase in the number of applications to more than 168 thousand, of which 95% were approved.
In the first three months, the Single Window was the main source of applications for weapons. Over all this time, more than 65 thousand people have used this method. However, later the popularity of the site decreased to 31.1% of applications. The chatbot helped send requests to 14 thousand people, but subsequently its share fell from every sixth request to 6.9%. Now the majority of Ukrainians apply for weapons permits offline, this is 61.9%.
The unified register of firearms in electronic form has been operating since June 23. Online you can create an application for a permit to carry, store and purchase weapons, renew the permit, or report a change in your place of residence as the place of storage of weapons. The service also provides the user with information about the weapon registered to him.
