DOJ FAQs

I am moving into California and I own several handguns. What are the new-resident registration requirements?

You are considered to be a personal handgun importer as defined by California law. You may bring all of your otherwise California-legal firearms with you, but you must report all of your handguns to the DOJ within 60 days as required utilizing the New Resident Handgun Ownership Report. You are not required to report rifles or shotguns. You may not bring ammunition feeding devices with a capacity greater than ten rounds, machineguns, or assault weapons into California.

(PC sections 12001(n), 12072(f)(2))

Once he becomes a CA resident, he needs to register his handguns (off-roster OK) and get a DL or ID. Then he can do a PPT with you on the handguns.

He cannot bring in AW or high-capacity magazines.

Once he becomes a CA resident, he needs to register his handguns (off-roster OK) and get a DL or ID. Then he can do a PPT with you on the handguns.

He has 60 days to register his handguns. He can PPT as soon as he has a CADL or CAID. Therefore, if he gets his CADL/CAID within 60 days, he can PPT them without first registering them.

And it is worth repeating, he cannot bring in any CA AW or high-capacity magazines.
