In order to keep your permit current, it will be necessary for you to apply for a new permit every 5 years. You may apply for a renewal permit up to within 30 days after expiration for a reduced fee. If your license is expired by more than 30 days, you will have to apply for a new permit and will not receive the reduced fee.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, if your permit expired after February 13, 2020, you may still renew your permit at the regular renewal rate. Click here to submit the preliminary application online. When filling out the preliminary gun permit application online, if you are a renewal and are getting an error message, please select new license application. When you arrive at the satellite office, if you are eligible for a renewal permit, it will be converted to a renewal application and the renewal fee will be applied.
If you have a permit issued in another county in Georgia, please call our office for more information.
*NOTE: If Applicant still holds a Driver's License from another state, Applicant must get a Georgia Driver's License or Georgia State-Issued Identification Card before applying.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we are currently NOT accepting cash. We are accepting Visa, MasterCard, American Express Credit/Debit Cards (a card processing fee will apply to all credit/debit card payments), local Henry County Checks (must be over check number 500), and Money Orders.
