Understanding CCW Requirements

The Uniform CCW License Design Standards outlined by the state of California impose precise specifications on the size, format, and security features of CCW card licenses. To comply, licenses must adhere to industry standard CR80 size dimensions (2.125 inches in height and 3.375 inches in width) and be printed on a hard card using Form BOF 4501. The front and back of the license must follow a specific format designated by the state, with provisions for the addition of the licensing authority’s seal. This process is typically handled by an ID card printer.

Additionally, the capturing of an original right thumbprint for every initial or renewal CCW card license is mandated. It is crucial that the licensee’s thumbprint or fingerprint image adheres to true size specifications which can be achieved with a variety of hardware solutions. Furthermore, if a Personal Identity Verification single finger capture device is utilized, it must be certified by the FBI and compliant with the NGI Image Quality Specifications, ensuring the integrity of fingerprint data.

Moreover, the printed license itself must be credit card-sized, with the photo, signature and fingerprint of the registered user. These stringent requirements underscore the importance of partnering with a trusted provider capable of delivering compliant solutions tailored to the needs of law enforcement agencies. To assist in achieving this requirement, ADVANTIDGE has developed a turnkey solution customized for this application to make it easy to support your citizens while maintaining compliance.
