Graubünden: the cantonal system (licence-based hunting)
Graubünden practises licence-based hunting, within the federal framework shared by Switzerland's 26 cantons.
Graubünden practises licence-based hunting (patent system): each hunter individually acquires an authorisation, for a duration and species defined by cantonal regulation, within the framework set by the Federal Act on Hunting (LChP/JSG) and its implementing ordinance (OChP/JSV). The competent cantonal service, the Amt für Jagd und Fischerei, is listed in the directory of the Conference of Heads of Environmental Protection Services (KVU), which records the hunting authority of each of Switzerland's 26 cantons. The precise conditions in this canton — hunting planning, dates by species, reserves, multilingual documentation (German, Italian, Romansh) — remain to be catalogued in detail on the cantonal portal. They must be verified directly with the service before any application.
