Massachusetts licenses are issued by the police department where you live. Bring the certificate of completion from your state-approved class, your ID and the state fee. They set the process, the interview and the timeline.

What that involves

Step 3 · applying in Revere

Where Revere residents apply.

Your application goes to the Revere Police Department — the licensing authority for Revere. Applying is your own step; what we do is the training the state requires first.

State fee: $100 for a new LTC, paid to the department (some towns add a small administrative fee).
Bring: your certificate of completion from the state-approved class (ours is Course LTC035), government ID, proof of residency, and the completed state application form.
Fingerprints and interview are scheduled by the department; most departments book appointments, so call early.
Timeline: Massachusetts gives the licensing authority 40 days to act on a complete application; real waits vary by department and season.
Non-residents who work in or travel through Massachusetts apply through the Firearms Records Bureau instead.
