I already have a Form 4457 notarized, with the same equipment I'm taking to Namibia this April. However, I've changed street addresses, but still reside in the same town (if that matters). Is it a requirement to get another 4457 approved with the new address, or can I just use the old one?

use the old form- it is just a way to prove prior ownership of a firearm on entering an African country and on re-entering the US.

Have you notified the State Department and changed your passport info?


Likely not so why would you change your 4457?

As jdollar said, use the old form.

A passport doesn't have an address on it anywhere.

JGRaider:

That's true just a page to pencil in your contact info.

I realize my response seemed a bit short and pointed. Sorry.

I have moved to another city and have gone to Africa 3 times with the old 4457 and a new one for an additional rifle. No problems or questions.

Good luck on your hunt.

Not a problem at all RCG.....I appreciate the help.
