If adding a firearm endorsement to your current registration, you must submit an on-line Firearm Endorsement Application at http://www.dcjs.virginia.gov/online and pay the appropriate fee. Firearm endorsements expire annually on the same month as the registration. If your registration has been issued for two years expiring in the month of December, the firearm endorsement will expire in December annually even if it was added only 4 months prior to that date.
