How do I apply for a license to carry a concealed weapon?

To be eligible to apply for a Washington State Concealed Pistol License (CPL) with the Bremerton Police Department, you must be at least 21 years of age, be a U.S. citizen, and reside within the city limits of Bremerton. If you do not meet these residency requirements you must apply in the city or county where you reside.

The fees for a CPL are:

  • New Application: $49.25
  • Renewal (0-90 days before expiration): $32
  • Late Renewal (0-90 days after expiration): $42
  • Replacement (If lost or Stolen): $10

Payment of fees is due when you turn in your application. The fees are nonrefundable if your application is denied. A CPL (if issued) is good for 5 years from the date of issuance.
