Maryland Bill of Sale Forms

The Maryland bill of sale form entails a descriptive rundown of the component facts involved in the sale of a property item within a contract.

Firearm Registration Forms

Maryland does not require any system classified as “registration” of weapons within the state, but when buying a gun, the transaction is archived in the same vein of formal registration. To first be eligible to purchase a firearm, state residents must first apply and secure a Handgun Qualification license by providing fingerprint identification and completing an application of the Maryland State Police Licensing Portal. Although submission of an application will require one to pass a background check, each time the act of purchasing a new gun occurs, it will necessitate additional background checks. Gaining access to an HQL will also obligate applicants to prepare the following materials:

• A completed and signed Maryland Handgun Qualification License Application Form
• Proof of fulfillment of a standard firearm training program from a state-approved instructor
• A passport-style color photograph (must be captured within 30 days of application).
• An original fingerprint identification card for the applicant
• Payment in the form of a cashier’s check or money order for all application fees ($50).
