Issuing Authority:
Application is made to the police chief where the applicant resides or to the Superintendent of State Police if the community does not have a police chief or if the applicant is a nonresident. The licensing authority makes a recommendation to a judge of the Superior Court who grants or denies the permit. The judge may also place restrictions on the permit.

A description, including serial number, of every handgun which the applicant intends to carry must be provided. Only one permit need be obtained for all such handguns.
Failure to give notice to an applicant within 60 days is deemed to be an approval of the permit. The procedure for appealing a denial is the same as appealing a denial of a Permit to Purchase or FID.

Steps To Starting Your Own Company

Step 1

Learn state licensing requirements. Contact your state's insurance regulation and licensing department and ask about bail bond licensing requirements. Requirements vary by states but in general, most states have a pre-licensing course requisite prior to obtaining a bail bond license. Get a list of approved per-licensing and primary licensing courses and locations from the insurance regulator.

Step 2

Familiarize yourself with state bail and bond laws. Read state statutes that have controlling authority over bail bonds and bail bonding agencies. Become familiar with these laws and stay advised of any changes by revisiting said statutes on a regular basis.

Step 3

Learn your jurisdiction's bail bonding procedures. Establish a relationship with the court's bail bonding department and become familiar in how bonds are received and processed. Develop a relationship with the various law enforcement agencies in your location as well as the court clerks.

Step 4

Obtain an occupational or business license. Contact the city and county government's business licensing department to determine if your bail bond business will need a business or occupational license to operate. Request applications of any necessary licenses, complete the license application(s) and return the documents to the city or county.

Step 5

Advertise your bail bond business. Use print media, such as local phone books and billboards, as your primary marketing tool. In addition, place ads in local newspapers and send your business cards to local journalists with a letter offering to be an expert source if they have such a need in a future assignment.
