The Royal Turks & Caicos Islands Police is urging all persons with expired firearms licence to visit the Firearms Unit to renew their firearms licence. All firearms licence in the Turks & Caicos became expired as of December 31st, 2012. There are over two hundred expired firearms licence holders at present who are at risk of having their firearms licence suspended indefinitely for failing to renew their licence.
Firearms licences are generally valid for one year, and it is the licence holder’s responsibility to renew their licence in a timely manner. Renewing on time will help to avoid possible complications and consequences, including being charged with unauthorized possession of a firearm.
If you acquired a firearms licence last year and have not renewed your firearms for 2013, then you must visit the Firearms Unit now with your firearm and all ammunition.
Individuals who possess firearms or handle them in the course of their work are required, under the Firearms Act, to have a valid firearms licence. A valid firearms licence is also necessary to acquire firearms or ammunition.
If anyone has any doubts, concerns or questions relating to firearms, please contact Sgt. Thomas of the Firearms Unit at 2316262.
