When signing up new members, we continue to encourage mailing the original Form 1187 applications to our office address listed at the bottom of the form. This is the best way to ensure a suitable application copy for processing. That said, in an effort to provide multiple avenues for submissions, we are launching a new email submission option.

NAPS Headquarters is launching the new email address join@naps.org for submitting new member Form 1187 applications electronically.

Important Information for Email Submissions:

• To submit a Form 1187 electronically, please include the full name of the applicant in the subject line with the following format: SUBJECT: 1187 – FIRST LAST NAME.
• Please also include the name of the applicant in the body of the email, as well as your full name (the sender) and branch number. This is particularly important when submitting multiple applications in one PDF attachment. Please include the names of all applicants in the body of the email.
• The Form 1187 should be sent as an attachment (PDF or image file)—not an image in the body of the email. Photos of applications will not be accepted. It must be a clear, scanned copy (more information below).

NOTE: This email address should only be used to submit NAPS Form 1187 applications. For regular membership inquiries or to check on an applicant’s status, please respond to one of your DCO emails or contact naps.ec@naps.org.
