§ 5-10

Copy of Federal Firearms License filed with the Illinois State Police. Each licensee shall file with the Illinois State Police a copy of its license, together with a sworn affidavit indicating that the license presented is in fact its license and that the license is valid. The Illinois State Police may by rule create a process for checking the validity of the license, in lieu of requiring an affidavit. Upon receipt and review by the Illinois State Police, the Illinois State Police shall issue a certificate of license to the licensee, allowing the licensee to conduct business within this State. The Illinois State Police shall issue an initial certificate of license within 30 days of receipt of the copy of license and sworn affidavit. If the Illinois State Police does not issue the certificate within 30 days, the licensee shall operate as if a certificate has been granted unless and until a denial is issued by the Illinois State Police.
