    Turks and Caicos Islands
  • More Info at:
We, the residents of the Turks and Caicos islands, petition the government to allow for law abiding citizens and business operators to possess and carry TASER self defense equipment for personal protection of life and property.
Whereas, increasing crimes are committed where criminals wield guns and other offensive weapons.
Meanwhile, civilians, business owners and police have nothing to protect themselves.

Whereas, TASER Electronic Control Devices (ECDs) are not considered firearms by the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (BATF) because the TASER cartridge uses compressed, inert nitrogen gas to launch the probes instead of gun powder.

Whereas, TASER products have no adverse risks to the operator and present a less lethal option to individuals who may otherwise carry a registered firearm.

Whereas, there is no Turks and Caicos law specifically restricting TASERS.

Whereas, there are adequate protections implemented to control the purchase of TASER by only law abiding persons and required training is completed prior to activation of ones personal TASER product.

Therefore; we respectfully request the permission to import TASER self defense equipment as a less lethal option for our protection and the betterment of the island.

Protect Life - In God We Trust.
