If you are a renewal and are unable to schedule an appointment online within 90 days before expiration or 30 days after, please call our office at (770)288-7601,  so we can schedule your appointment.

You may now electronically submit the Preliminary Gun Permit Application securely online.  When filling out the preliminary gun permit appication online, if you are a renewal permit and are getting an error message, please select new license application.  When you arrive at the office, if you are eligible for a renewal permit, it will be converted to a renewal application and the renewal fee will be applied.  A clerk will convert it to a renewal application upon arrival at our office and apply the renewal application fee.  

After submitting the application online, you must schedule an appointment to meet with a clerk and finalize the application, pay the required fees and be fingerprinted and photographed.
