Who obtains the Firearms Shipment Approval numbers, the shipper or the receiver of the firearm?
The FFL shipping the firearm must obtain a Firearms Shipment Approval number from CADOJ Bureau of Firearms. The shipment cannot be legally shipped without a verification approval number. The California FFL who receives the firearm must be on the Centralized List and must keep the Firearms Shipment Approval number on file for three (3) years.
