Bill > S01485

This bill requires the New York State Police Division to proactively send renewal notices to pistol and revolver license holders at least 90 days before their current license expires. Specifically, the bill amends the state penal law to mandate that the division of state police maintain a record of license expiration dates and send out advance notifications to help license holders submit their renewal applications in a timely manner. This provision aims to assist gun license holders in staying current with their licensing requirements by providing them with ample advance notice of their upcoming license expiration, thereby helping to ensure continuous legal compliance and avoiding potential lapses in licensing status. The bill will go into effect 30 days after it becomes law, which is a standard implementation timeline for New York state legislation.
