Understanding Texas 30.05, 30.06, and 30.07 Signs
Texas law provides different signage provisions for property owners seeking to restrict firearm possession or carrying on their premises. The appropriate notice depends on the type of firearm carry being restricted and the applicable legal requirements.
- Texas Penal Code 30.05: Provides notice that firearms are prohibited on the property, including notice relevant to individuals carrying without a handgun license.
- Texas Penal Code 30.06: Provides notice prohibiting licensed individuals from entering with concealed handguns.
- Texas Penal Code 30.07: Provides notice prohibiting licensed individuals from entering with openly carried handguns.
Businesses seeking to restrict multiple forms of firearm carry should determine whether more than one statutory sign is necessary.
