California's CCW is a license to carry a concealed firearm on your person in public subject to restrictions placed upon it by statute and the issuing department.
The Sacramento Police Department will consider the below criteria prior to issuance of a CCW permit as well as conditions set forth under state law. The Chief of Police will make the final determination for issuance of a CCW permit.
If you live within a jurisdiction of a city police department, you may apply to that city police department or county sheriff's office for a CCW license. However, only residents of a city may apply to a city's police department for a CCW license. The agency can answer your questions and provide you with copies of their CCW policy statement and the State's Standardized CCW Application. In the city of Sacramento, you may begin the application process by visiting the public counter at Police Headquarters:
