You can comply with this requirement by personally communicating your intent to register the firearm to MPD before bringing the gun into the District. You must then file an application for a registration certificate within 48 hours after communicating your intent to do so.

The most common scenario for handgun transactions through the Metropolitan Police Department is for new purchases of handguns. The questions below specifically address questions about handgun transactions. For information about purchasing and transferring long guns, or transferring any handgun that is already lawfully owned in another jurisdiction, please refer to the other information titled Firearms Registration in the District of Columbia, or call (202) 671-6563.

A: Your initial visit will last approximately 30-45 minutes. To prepare, it is highly recommended that you complete -- and sign electronically -- the required documents in advance. Clicking the "Submit and Sign" button will automatically submit your documents to MPD as required.

NOTE: If applying for a Concealed Carry Pistol License, in addition to the other documents listed above, please complete the Concealed Carry Pistol License Application and see the application instructions.

Pursuant to the decision of the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, Wrenn v. District of Columbia and Grace v. District of Columbia, applicants for a license to carry a concealed handgun in the District of Columbia no longer need to provide a good reason for carrying a handgun. All other suitability and training requirements as described in the regulations and application must still be met. All forms and information sheets will be updated shortly. In the meantime, if there is a reference to providing a good reason, please disregard. If your application for a carry license has been previously denied because of a failure to provide a good reason, you may reapply for a license to carry. You will not be charged a fee for this application.

Retired and separated law enforcement officers who have license to carry a pistol under HR-218 must renew their license on a yearly basis. DC concealed carry pistol licenses must be renewed every two years. MPD offers online renewal services for both types of licenses. The online option will allow you to complete the required form and submit it along with your payment for processing. The Firearms Registration Unit staff will review your submitted application and send a reply to your request through the online portal. Once your renewal application has been approved a new license will be mailed to you. As an additional convenience, you may use the site to update your license details, including your address.

When transporting your firearm in a vehicle, it must be unloaded, with neither the firearm nor any ammunition readily accessible or directly accessible from the passenger compartment of the transporting vehicle. If the vehicle does not have a compartment separate from the driver's compartment, the firearm or ammunition must be unloaded and contained in a locked container other than the glove compartment or console. If you are transporting your firearm in a manner other than in a vehicle, it must be unloaded, inside a locked container, and separate from any ammunition.

Whenever in possession of a firearm, a registrant shall have in his or her possession the registration certificate, or exact photocopy thereof, for such firearm, and exhibit the same upon the demand of a law enforcement officer. (DC Official Code 7-2502.08).

Do not bring your firearm or ammunition with you when you register your firearm. Possession of ammunition for an unregistered firearm is prohibited in the District of Columbia, and you may be subject to criminal charges. If registering a semi-automatic firearm, do not bring the accompanying magazine. Please note that it is illegal to possess a magazine that holds more than ten rounds of ammunition in the District of Columbia.

Under DC law, a firearms dealer cannot release a firearm to a purchaser until 10 days after the initial date of purchase. (DC Official Code 22-4508) A gun dealer will not release your firearm until you return with your approved registration certificate.
