I went to the WW2 museum in New Orleans, right after the terror attack. I went in, showed my permit, signed in and was allowed to carry at the museum. Had I not had it, I would have had to walk back to hotel and secure it. Because when you travel you still need a permit in a lot of States.

This new process allows for a "Duplicate" for lost or stolen licenses and a "Replacement" for name or other changes. We will soon offer new services for security guard licenses as well. This will allow these licensees to obtain and renew a guard license at a local office instead of traveling to Ft. Walton. A duplicate license requires a notarized affidavit for processing. We have a template affidavit available on our website and we can notarize the completed form in our office. There is also a replacement license form available which does not require notarization. Appointments are encouraged for concealed weapon transactions. https://escambiataxcollector.com/concealed-weapon-license/ The Florida Tax Collector Association has worked for the last several years to update our concealed weapon services.
