When I renew my Possession and Acquisition Licence (PAL), do I need to resend a copy of my safety training certificates?
You do not have to resend safety training information if you are renewing a PAL with the same acquisition privileges. If you are applying for a licence with new privileges – for example, if you are currently licensed only for non-restricted firearms but wish also to be licensed for restricted firearms – you will need to include proof that you have met the additional safety training requirements unless you passed the Canadian Firearms Safety Course prior to February 1999, when it included restricted firearms.
