PART I, PRELIMINARY PROVISIONS
Short title
1. This Act may be cited as the Arms and Ammunition Act.
Application
2.-(1) This Act shall apply to Tanzania Zanzibar as well as to Mainland Tanzania.
(2) This Act shall apply in relation to all firearms other than armaments to which the provisions of the Armaments Control Act, apply.
(3) The Minister may, by notice published in the Gazette, exempt from the application of this Act any particular arms or category of arms.
[Editor's Note: After reviewing available legislation and other source documents, GunPolicy.org found no evidence of a provision in law to regulate this aspect of firearm policy. As some authorities enforce restrictions only in practice, the mere absence of a published legal provision should be treated with caution.]
