Concealed Weapons Permits

Florida concealed weapon licenses are processed by the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services. Due to rising demand, tax collector offices have been given authority to take applications, fingerprint the applicants and send the information securely to the department for final determination. There are currently more than 1.3 million concealed weapon permits in Florida, and the department processed more than 177,000 new licenses last fiscal year.

Application for the statewide concealed weapons permit can be completed by appointment only. This includes original applications that require fingerprinting, renewals, duplicates, and revised (name/address change) permits. We are also able to provide fingerprinting and photos to complete online applications.

To schedule your appointment, please visit our online appointments page.

For more information please visit the FL Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services' website.

Please note that applications processed in our office will incur an additional fee.
