How do I apply for a concealed weapons (pistol) permit?

Download the Pistol Permit Application form, fill it out and bring (or mail) it to our office. A background check will be performed and if it comes back acceptable as per NH RSA 159, a pistol permit will be issued. The fee is $10 for four years and it expires on the applicant’s birth date.


I am going away and want the police to watch my house. What do I need to do?

Download and fill out the Vacant Property Form then either bring or mail it to our office. Please let us know when you return as well.


Someone gave me a check that bounced.  What do I do now?

Check the Bad Check Policy and if your situation meets that criteria, then bring the check and the 14 day letter to the station for prosecution.


I was the victim of (or witness to) a crime.  What do I do if I have to go to court?

Check the Victim and Witness Tips When Appearing in Court page. It has the answers to most questions you may have. Please feel free to contact our office or the Prosecutor’s Office if you have further questions.
