BB guns and air guns are prohibited in the United Arab Emirates under federal weapons regulations. Dubai, as part of the UAE, enforces this ban strictly. There are no licensed retailers, no legal import channels, and no exceptions for recreational use. Possession can result in confiscation, fines, and potential criminal charges depending on circumstances. Visitors should not attempt to bring BB guns into the country—customs will seize them. Residents seeking shooting sports must use licensed firearms clubs that provide regulated firearms on premises; personal ownership of any projectile-firing device (including airsoft, paintball markers, and BB/pellet guns) requires police-issued licenses that are effectively unavailable for these categories.
