Permit to Authorise Storage of Firearms in NSW - New South Wales

Description

You will need this permit if you live interstate and intend to store firearms in NSW on a permanent basis. You must hold an interstate firearms licence or permit to be eligible. The firearms you intend to store must be registered in the State or Territory of residence.

Because your firearms are registered outside of NSW, NSW Police do not have a record of details relating to identity locations, number and type of firearms and storage details. This permit is required so that details are recorded, and safe keeping is ensured.

Service type

Licence

Eligibility requirements

If you have never held a firearms licence or permit in NSW, or you do not currently hold an equivalent issued firearms licence or permit interstate, you are required to complete a firearms safety training course and provide evidence of this with your application.

Please contact the agency to identify any further eligibility requirements.

Duration

The permit will be issued for a maximum term of five years.
