In order to purchase a firearm in Florida you will need a valid driver’s license or gov’t issued picture ID, be a Florida resident and be at least 21 years of age. If you do not have a valid Florida ID, you must have a valid gov’t issued picture ID and gov’t issued proof that you are a Florida resident. For example, a vehicle registration, voter’s registration card, Property Tax Record or a hunting/fishing license. If you are not a Florida resident, the firearm purchased may be shipped to a licensed dealer where permitted by state laws. **Some exceptions may apply to long guns. If you are not a U.S. Citizen, you must bring your Resident Alien Card, as well as, your Florida ID or a valid Visa, hunting license and your Florida ID. All individuals MUST pass a background check to take possession of a purchased firearm. If you have a Florida Concealed Weapon permit you will be permitted to take the firearm with you same day as purchased. Otherwise, you will be required to wait 3-5 business days, excluding weekends and federal holidays, before picking up the firearm from a licensed dealer in the area. **Wait times vary by county. **ALL DOCUMENTATION MUST BE ORIGINALS AND NOT EXPIRED**
