How often must a Firearms Purchaser Identification Card be renewed?

  1. Every 2 years

  2. Every 4 years

  3. It does not expire

  4. Every 10 years

The correct answer is: It does not expire

The correct answer is that a Firearms Purchaser Identification Card does not expire. In New Jersey, once a person obtains this card, it remains valid indefinitely as long as it is not revoked due to legal reasons, such as a criminal conviction or mental health issue. This contrasts with other types of permits or licenses that commonly have specific expiration periods and require renewal to ensure ongoing eligibility. In this case, the perpetual validity of the Firearms Purchaser Identification Card reflects New Jersey's approach to responsible firearm ownership while still maintaining oversight and regulation in other areas.
