Sheriff's Office - Permit to Carry

Show All Answers

1. When can I renew my Permit to Carry?

A permit can be renewed up to 90 days prior to the expiration date of the current permit. The renewal gun permit fee will be $75.
After the expiration date, but within 30 days after the expiration, the permit can still be renewed by paying a fee of $85. During this time the old permit is not valid and you will not be able to carry until after you receive your renewal permit.
31 days after expiration the old permit can no longer be renewed. An application will have to be submitted for a new gun permit. The gun permit fee will then be $100.

2. What is the process for renewing my permit?: View the renewal process on our Renewal of Permit to Carry page.
