Effective October 1, 2008, BATFE’s Federal Firearms Licensing Center will begin its permanent transfer of function from Atlanta, Georgia to Martinsburg, West Virginia.
This transfer of function was mandated by Congress in ATF’s FY2005 appropriations legislation.
All FFL applications received by the Center with a postmark date of October 1, 2008 or later will be assigned for processing based on the attached list of state assignments. Applications postmarked before October 1, 2008 will continue to be assigned to their current examiner for completion.
FFLs can call the Center toll free at (866) 662-2750 with any questions about the change.
