Marquage, Enregistrement et Traçage des Armes

Le Luxembourg ne connaît pas de système national de marquage utilisé dans la fabrication et/ou l'importation de petites armes. Il n'existe pas d'usine de fabrication d'armes au Grand-Duché.

Les armuriers et commerçants d'armes et de munitions sont obligés de tenir un registre, qui doit contenir les informations concernant l'entrée et la sortie des armes, ainsi que la marque, le calibre, et le numéro de fabrication de chaque arme, ainsi que le nom et l'adresse du fournisseur et de l'acquéreur.

Le registre doit indiquer en outre le numéro de série et la date d'établissement de l'autorisation ministérielle. Il doit être exhibé à toute réquisition des agents de l'autorité publique. Les armuriers et commerçants d'armes peuvent être tenus à délivrer une copie de leur registre au Ministre de la Justice.

Marking, Record-Keeping and Tracing of Firearms

Luxembourg does not have a system of marking used in the manufacture and/or the importation of small arms. There are no factories manufacturing firearms in the Grand Duchy.

Manufacturers and dealers of firearms and ammunition have to keep records, which must contain the information concerning the entrance and exit of firearms, as well as the marking, calibre, serial number of each firearm, and the name and address of the supplier and purchaser.

The records must also indicate the serial number and the date of the ministerial authorisation. It must be shown on demand to an agent of public authority. Manufacturers and dealers of firearms can be ordained to deliver a copy of their records to the Ministry of Justice.
