What happens if you move to a different county within North Carolina after obtaining a Concealed Handgun Permit?

  1. You must surrender your permit

  2. You must notify the sheriff of your new county

  3. Your permit is no longer valid

  4. Nothing, your permit is state-wide

The correct answer is: You must notify the sheriff of your new county

If you move to a different county within North Carolina after obtaining a Concealed Handgun Permit, you are required to notify the sheriff of your new county. This is important because the sheriff in your new county needs to update their records with your current information. It ensures that law enforcement agencies statewide have accurate and up-to-date information about individuals who are legally carrying concealed weapons. This process does not invalidate your permit; instead, it helps maintain the validity and legality of your permit in your new county of residence. It is essential to comply with this requirement to avoid any legal issues and to ensure that you can continue to carry your concealed handgun legally in North Carolina.
