The expiration date in the upper right hand corner has been removed.

The removal of the exp[iration date is going to make a lot of heads explode in the different countries that were requiring it to be current

I wonder what their response is going to be now, if they will just move to using the 5/22 date at the bottom. Assuming that is what that actually is.

If memory serves me correctly, the older versions also used to be good indefinitely

They are but try to tell that to some African official on a power trip or just looking for a bribe.

I wonder if the 5/22 on the bottom will be thought as an expiration date by some countries

It will cause problems. Foreign officials find it unbelievable that Americans don’t need a license to own firearms.

then maybe the date should be whited out then recopy and does not show a date at all

I have always cut the date off of the form they dont care about that date. They want to go by the date it is stamped and they try and say that needs to be within the year.

They just dont get the form really means nothing at all and is just a good feeling for them for some reason
