A non-resident of North Carolina may carry a concealed handgun in the state under what condition?

They have a valid driver's license
They are passing through the state without stopping
They possess a valid concealed carry permit from their home state
They inform local law enforcement

The correct answer is: They possess a valid concealed carry permit from their home state

A non-resident of North Carolina may carry a concealed handgun in the state if they possess a valid concealed carry permit from their home state. This is known as reciprocity, where certain states recognize the concealed carry permits issued by other states. It is important for non-residents to understand and comply with the reciprocity agreements between states to ensure they are legally carrying a concealed handgun in North Carolina. Having a valid driver's license does not grant the ability to carry a concealed handgun in North Carolina. Simply passing through the state without stopping does not exempt someone from abiding by the state's laws regarding concealed carry. Informing local law enforcement is not a condition for non-residents to carry a concealed handgun in North Carolina.
