What happens to your CPLTA license if you move out of state?

When you move out of state, your CPLTA (Concealed Pistol License To Carry) license becomes invalid because licenses are typically issued and regulated at the state level. Each state has its own laws regarding concealed carry permits, and they may not recognize licenses from other states. Therefore, to carry a concealed weapon legally in your new state, you must apply for a new license in accordance with that state’s specific requirements and laws.

This process often involves providing documentation, undergoing background checks, and sometimes completing state-required training. The regulations can significantly vary from one state to another, making it essential for individuals to comply with their new state’s licensing process to ensure they remain lawful firearm carriers.
