TWG just sent me an updated 4457 that now has no expiration date. The old one had an expiration date prominently listed and I believe it was June 2022. I leave for Zim Oct. 15th so better get an updated one pronto, so I have one less issue to worry about. STAY IN THE FIGHT! | ||

The power's that be will probably tell you it's no good since your gun permit cannot expire? LOL | |||

It's been pretty easy to get a 4457 without an expiration date. Wink Wink!! I believe the issue currently is some of the officials, especially in RSA, want to see the form stamped within the past 6 months, regardless of the expiration date. YMMV however. | |||

Ironically, the 4457 is a US Customs form that should only be of US Customs concern, not International Governments. Just another nit-pick to bother travelers who hunt or to pick their pocket of coin. Mr X or Bruce have been saviors to many in Tambo airport, but watch out when on returning flights home. The little "check out" room is notorious for skinning one of coin.

I believe Qatar looks for an “expiration date” on one’s “firearms license” prior to allowing firearms to be checked in. But I could be wrong. Karl Evans | |||

Why cannot they write in English on the form, “This form has no expiration date, and is good for life.” etc… | |||

That would make sense, so it will never happen | |||

My next trip to Customs will likely take several trips, but I want the forms with no expiration. | |||

I received my revised 4457's from TWG yesterday. This (OMB CONTROL NUMBER: 1651-0010) is what is printed in place of the date at the top of the form. | |||

bwanajay, what about the date on the lower left corner I wonder if some country will take that as the expiration and refuse it | |||
