If the FOID card is lost, then it is lost and you don't know where it is.

If you know where it is to get it back from, then it is not lost. Go get it.

I recently had my wallet stolen. A police report was taken, I was provided with my FOID card number and told to contact the state police. (They issue the cards.). The state police informed me that lost and stolen FOID cards are treated the same. The number is flagged as no longer valid and you must re-apply and be re-investigated, just like if you had never had a FOID card or were doing the 10-year renewal.

Application may be printed or picked up at almost any gun shop and most sporting stores. It may also be sent to you if you contact the state police. Many of the businesses will also gladly do the paperwork, take the required photograph, accept the $10 state fee, and submit the paperwork for you for a nominal fee.

Do not believe the statement about 30 days, I would consider 60 days being more reasonable though some do receive their cards is less than 3 weeks.

The phone number is (217) 782-7980. (For Hearing Impaired only TDD (800) 255-3323)

FOID stands for Firearm Owner Identification. If you lost your FOID card, to get a new one, you must apply at the Illinois State Police Firearms Services Bureau.
