What Is an ATF EFT File?

An Electronic Fingerprint Transmission (EFT) file is a digital fingerprint file that may be required for certain ATF eForms applications. Instead of mailing paper fingerprint cards, eligible applicants can use an EFT file as part of the electronic submission process when accepted by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF).
