Residents now able to renew concealed carry license at Tax Collector’s office at Pinellas Plaza

Local residents are now able to obtain a renewed concealed weapon license at the Sumter County Tax Collector’s office at Pinellas Plaza in The Villages.

Florida concealed weapon licenses are processed by the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services. Due to rising demand, tax collector offices have been given authority to accept renewal applications and print renewal licenses for eligible applicants. Licensees who are not Florida residents or who need to submit documentation of a name change will not be eligible to receive a renewal license from the Sumter County Tax Collector’s office.

Those applications can still be submitted at the office, but FDACS will print and mail the renewal license.For more information or to schedule your appointment, visit www.sumtertaxcollector.com.
