Frequently asked questions

Can a professional display go ahead in Dordogne during a ban?

It depends on the order: some expressly exempt declared professional displays, others require a case-by-case request, others mention no exemption. The transcription above says which; the préfecture decides.

Which declaration is filed for a fireworks display in Dordogne?

For a show using F4 or T2 articles, or more than 35 kg of net explosive content, the CERFA 14098 is filed with the préfecture and the town hall at least one month ahead. PyroDesk pre-fills it from the job file.

How can I be warned of a new order in Dordogne?

PyroDesk scans the prefectural websites of all 101 départements every night and alerts the accounts concerned when an order affects their firing dates.
