Permits, trophies & logistics
- Wild boar (Sus scrofa) is NOT CITES-listed — no CITES permit needed to export or import a boar trophy to the US or EU.
- EU-resident hunters travel with their rifle on a European Firearms Pass (EFP); no separate Spanish import permit required.
- Non-EU hunters (incl. US) must obtain a temporary firearm import permit from the Spanish Guardia Civil (arranged in advance, typically via the outfitter/agency) and declare the rifle at customs with proof of ownership; bolt-action rifles are standard for montería.
- A regional hunting licence (licencia de caza) from the relevant autonomous community — Andalucía for Sierra de Andújar — plus valid hunting liability insurance is mandatory to hunt.
- US import: clear through US Customs + US Fish & Wildlife inspection; non-CITES boar trophies do not require a USFWS CITES permit but must meet veterinary/sanitary (USDA APHIS) treatment rules.
- EU/sanitary note: African Swine Fever (ASF) controls can affect movement of raw boar parts/meat across borders — finished, treated taxidermy is generally unaffected, but confirm current APHIS/EU veterinary conditions before shipping skulls/capes.

When is the best time to hunt driven wild boar in Spain?
Oct–Feb (the only legal montería window; peak driven dates Nov–Jan, cooler weather + highest boar movement and finca density). Boar can also be stalked year-round but the classic driven montería is strictly autumn/winter. A typical hunt runs 2–3 driven/montería days within a 4–7 day hosted Spain trip (most monterías are 1–3 shooting days; Huntica wraps them in a lodge-based stay at El Encinarejo).
What is the success rate on a driven wild boar hunt?
Very high contact rate: on a managed montería finca a gun can realistically see and have shots at 5–40 boar per day (premium fincas advertise 30–40 boar possible per gun); near-100% chance of opportunity, with actual boar taken depending heavily on the puesto (stand) draw and the gun's shooting.…
