The process of getting your CT Pistol Permit

Resident Permit

You need to go to the police station in the town you live in and ask for a pistol permit application.

Non Resident Permit - Contact CT DPS for application

Fill out the application fully, following the instructions included in the packet. Note that parts of the application will need to be notarized.

Once you have the application all filled out and notarized then you will make an appointment at the police station for finger printing.

When going to get finger prints done make sure you bring your completed application and certificate from your safety class and once you have your finger prints you will take everything to the permits department.
