Hanover Police Department Firearms Licensing Update - June 2020

June 17, 2020

The Hanover Police Department will begin processing NEW LTC/FID applications the week of July 6, 2020. Please send an email to firearms@hanover-ma.gov to schedule an appointment. 

All NEW LTC/FID appointments will be scheduled via email. When an applicant arrives at HPD, they will call dispatch at 781-826-3131 to say they have arrived for their scheduled LTC/FID appointment. An officer will meet the applicant in the parking lot where the applicant will provide their application as well as proof of licensing fee payment. The applicant will be escorted to the garage bay area where there will be a temperature check and a PPE check prior to entering the station. If all is satisfactory, the applicant will be escorted into the booking area where fingerprinting will be conducted. After the fingerprinting process, the applicant will immediately return to their vehicle.

If you have already been in contact with us about your NEW LTC/FID application we will be contacting YOU via email. We encourage all RENEWAL applicants to please mail/drop off your applications and proof of payment. 

Please email the Hanover Police Department at firearms@hanover-ma.gov with any questions.
