Questions

Good to know

Durable plastic printing for NJ Permit to Carry (PTC) and FID cards. We turn your paper or digital New Jersey firearm credentials into credit-card-strength PVC permits that stay intact and legible for years.

What exactly am I buying?

A durable, credit-card-strength PVC or laser-etched black metal reproduction of your official digital or paper credential. The state issues your permit — we print a practical, everyday card that stands up to daily wear and tear. These cards faithfully reproduce your valid, state-issued credential for everyday reference and carry. Based on our review of the applicable requirements in consultation with the issuing agency and several New Jersey firearms attorneys, we are confident these cards serve as an appropriate way to demonstrate your credential to law enforcement.

What should I upload?

Upload the original PDF file the state emailed you whenever possible — that produces the best results. If you don't have the PDF, send a high-resolution scan (300 DPI minimum) of the physical card. Do not send screenshots or photos of worn, damaged cards. Each file can be up to 20 MB.

How do I get my NJ Concealed Carry permit file?

Once approved, the NJ State Police send an automated email with a secure link to download your official electronic permit. Check your inbox, spam and junk folders so you don't miss it. The link stays active for the life of your permit (usually one to two years) — download the PDF and upload it here.

How much does it cost?

PVC cards are $10 each; the black metal card is $15. Shipping is $1 by regular mail, or free local pickup in Boonton, NJ. Buy 2 or more cards and one card is free.

How does the free card work?

Buy 2 or more cards and one of them is free. Add your cards, then pick which one is free in your cart. The black metal FID card can't be the free one.

What if my card wears out?

If your card wears out before it expires, contact us for a free replacement. Our PVC cards are waterproof and built to withstand daily use.

How long does it take?

All cards have a turnaround time of 1–3 business days after we verify your upload. Check your email and spam/junk folders for confirmation, order updates and pickup instructions.

How do I know what's happening with my order?

You get a confirmation as soon as we receive the order, and an update at each step — verified, printing, then shipped or ready for pickup. If you have a question, send us a message via our contact form with your order number.

Can I pick up instead of paying shipping?

Yes. Choose local pickup at checkout and we'll notify you the moment your cards are ready for pickup in Boonton, NJ.

Why choose NJ Carry Card?

We've been in the ID card business since 2004 — over two decades of professional, secure, durable card printing for businesses, organizations, schools and government entities. In 2023 we expanded into concealed carry permits and firearms ID cards, making us the first dedicated provider in this space. Our cards are credit-card sized, waterproof, and built to last.

Is this a government service?

No. This is a private printing utility. We do not issue permits, verify background checks, or act as an agent of the State of New Jersey. Customers must possess a valid, state-issued Permit to Carry. Our PVC cards are high-durability reproductions of your official digital credentials, intended for convenience and longevity. These cards faithfully reproduce your valid, state-issued credential for everyday reference and carry. Based on our review of the applicable requirements in consultation with the issuing agency and several New Jersey firearms attorneys, we are confident these cards serve as an appropriate way to demonstrate your credential to law enforcement.

Still stuck?

Start your order and leave a note on the card — we read every one before printing and email you if something needs a second look.
