Regulations relating to the registration of regulated businesses (N. 138, 2004).

These Regulations provide comprehensive guidelines for the registration and operation of various regulated businesses within the tourism sector. These regulations encompass a wide range of activities, including air charter services, booking agents, conference centers, foreign tour operators, shuttle and transport services, tour facilitators, tour and safari operators, trophy hunting operators, and vehicle rental services. The document outlines the necessary application procedures, requirements for registration, obligations of operators, and standards for facilities and services provided to tourists. It emphasizes the importance of maintaining high standards of hygiene, safety, and customer service.
Specifically focusing on trophy hunting, the regulations stipulate that operators must provide services and facilities for tourists to hunt game for trophy purposes. To qualify for registration, individuals or entities must hold rights to land registered under the Nature Conservation Ordinance, 1975, or possess a hunting quota allocated by the Minister responsible for Environment. Hunting activities must be conducted by registered Hunting Guides, Master Hunting Guides, or Professional Hunters. Vehicles used for hunting must be equipped with appropriate seating, gun holding facilities, and a first-aid kit. Additionally, operators must provide suitable facilities for slaughtering animals and salting trophies, including a gantry-type slaughtering facility.
