A money order in the amount of $20.00 payable to State of New Jersey must accompany this application. Answer all questions. If more space is needed, attach bond paper. Page two must be completed. Four photographs of the applicant, one and one-half inch square, head and shoulders, no hat, light background, taken within the last 30 days must accompany this application. So fill out the application you can print out online and take it to your local police. Cost is $20 and the Permit/License is valid for 2 years. You can find forms and information Here. From all that I have heard it is very difficult to get a NJ Permit to Carry.
