Wetgeving Verenigd Koninkrijk (UK)
Q. When can I use fireworks?
A. Fireworks can be used every day of the year between the hours of 7am and 11pm. The following dates have extended times:
Bonfire Night (5th November) - 7am to Midnight
New Year (31st December) - 7am to 1am (1st January)
Chinese New Year - 7am to 1am
Dwali - 7am to 1am
Q. Do I need a licence or special permission to light fireworks?
A. No, A private display needs no formalities. If you are putting on a public display, or are charging for entry, then you should follow all the published guidelines for an organised event.
Q. What is the difference between category 2 and 3 fireworks?
A. Category 2 fireworks only require 5m viewing distance. These are great for small gardens with young spectators. Category 3 fireworks require 25m viewing distance. These are the more impressive domestic fireworks enjoyed by children and adults alike. Category 4 fireworks require a special licence to use - these are the types of fireworks you will see during the official London New Year's Eve displays. These are only used by pyrotechnic experts.
Q. Why don’t you sell bangers/ jumping jacks?
A. Many types of fireworks which adults remember from their own childhood are not longer available either by law or by a voluntary agreement with the fireworks industry. This includes bangers, and as a general rule, fireworks of erratic flight.

Fireworks available to the public
People under the age of 18 are not allowed to buy fireworks, nor possess them in a public place. This was increased from 16 in 1997. Otherwise, all fireworks, since 1997, must comply with BS7114, and be marked accordingly and fall into one of the following three categories:
Category 1 ("indoor") fireworks are for use in extremely restricted areas.
Category 2 ("garden") fireworks must be safely viewable from 5 metres away, and must scatter no debris beyond a 3 metre range.
Category 3 ("display") fireworks must be safely viewable from 25 metres away, and must scatter no debris beyond a 20 metre range.
Under BS14035, there are also now Category 2 fireworks that require a longer distance of 8 metres, providing potentially better effects than 5 metre fireworks but without the fallout of Category 3 fireworks.
Fireworks of louder than 120dBA at 15 metres cannot be sold to the public. It is not illegal for a firework to be set off at less than the minimum safely viewable distance; however, in the event of any injury to a spectator, the firer might be liable if the distance was too short.
A Category 3 firework will contain no more than 1kg net explosive content in the case of cakes and fountains, except for fountain cakes, which can contain up to 3kg of net explosive content.
Professional fireworks
Category 4 ("professional") fireworks are for sale only to fireworks professionals. They have no restrictions, and this is the default category for any firework which has not been tested to confirm that it should be in one of the lower categories. Members of the public are not allowed to possess Category 4 fireworks.
Banned fireworks
Mortar Shells: all fireworks of the "aerial shell"/"mortar shell" type, which launch single, large projectiles into the air where they explode to create effects - are Category 4. This was as a result of the deaths in 1994 of Stephen Timcke and David Hattersley who were killed by mortars on successive nights.
Mini-rockets, bangers, firecrackers, fireworks of erratic flight (including jumping fireworks) were banned in 1997.
In 2004 the definition of mini-rocket was further restricted, and airbombs were also banned, in an effort to stop anti-social behaviour involving fireworks.
Restrictions on Use
Fireworks must not be let off between 11 pm and 7am, except on Chinese New Year, Diwali and New Year's Eve, when the period is extended until 1am, and on Guy Fawkes Night, when the period is extended until midnight. This restriction does not apply to displays organised by local Councils.
It is illegal to set off fireworks (including sparklers) in the street or public place. Breaking these laws can result in an on-the-spot fine of £80.
