1 PTCFOR for every gun holder

IT’S FINAL.
The Philippine National Police will allow one Permit-to-Carry Firearm Outside of Residence for every licensed gun holder provided they submit nine requirements, said PNP spokesman Chief Supt. Leonardo A. Espina.
Espina said PNP chief Director General Jesus A. Verzosa decided to issue one PTCFOR for a handgun.
“Those in possession of automatic rifles and machine pistols will not be given a PTCFOR,” he said.
A single PTCFOR will be issued to a licensed gun holder provided he or she submits an application form with 2X2 ID pictures; a letter- request addressed to the Chief, PNP (Attention, Chief, Firearms and Explosives Division), proof or document showing that the applicant is under actual threat or his life is in imminent danger, a xerox copy of the renewed firearm license, a xerox copy of the expired permit for renewal; NBI or Directorate for Intelligence clearance (Regional Intelligence Clearance for provincial applicants), neuro-psychiatric test, drug test and gun safety seminar with pictures during the seminar and actual proficiency test (firing test).
Private individuals, including businessmen and professionals, have to pay a PTCFOR fee of P4,000 plus P150 for the PTCFOR ID card.
Verzosa said a maximum of one long and one short firearm will be issued to every individual. Those holding two licensed firearms prior to the issuance of the new directive will be allowed to keep them in their houses. Owners of more than two guns should also register them regularly with the PNP Firearms and Explosives Division to avoid any criminal liability.
Espina said police will accost gun holders, including members of the PNP, the Armed Forces and other law enforcement agencies, carrying guns in the streets without a PTCFOR.
