    Are expats allowed to bring firearms into the country and, if so, what are the requirements for doing so? We would most likely be living on the outskirts of Cuenca and I would assume that one would be responsible for their own personal safety outside of the city (Having lived in the Virgin Islands for over 10 years, this was definitely the case). Does anyone have any thoughts on this matter?

    It is my understanding only EC citizens, with a ton of paperwork, can bring in firearms.

    It’s my understanding you can, though, buy firearms in Ecuador if you pass a psychological exam.
