If you would like to hunt in Germany but are not yet 18 years old, you can only be issued a youth hunting license in your name (minimum age 16). To obtain a youth hunting license for the first time, you need proof that you have passed a hunting examination in Germany.

With a youth hunting license, you may only hunt when accompanied by a guardian with hunting experience or a supervisor with hunting experience authorized in writing by your guardian(s).

With a youth hunting license you are not allowed to participate in group hunts.
