Our offices will be closed on February 12th and February 16th for Lincoln’s birthday and Presidents’ Day.

Additionally, please remember to complete your training and apply for your renewal prior to the expiration of your current permit. Due to AB1078, which went into effect the start of the new year, DOJ requires notification of any CCW permit that is 90 days or more expired.

If your permit is over 90 days expired without an open pending application on permitium, you would have to restart the entire process over again as an initial applicant. Please remember to stay on top of your training!

The Riverside County Sheriff’s CCW Unit would like to emphasize that only Riverside County residents and non-California resident applicants who intend to spend time in Riverside County may apply for a permit. Recently, it has come to our attention of a social media post that the RSO CCW Unit is accepting applications from other California counties. We would like to reiterate that this is not true, and that applicants must apply with their local licensing authority.
