Does Idaho recognize concealed carry permits from other states?

  1. Yes, from all states

  2. No, from no states

  3. Yes, but only from states with similar laws

  4. Yes, but the person must meet Idaho's age requirement

The correct answer is: Yes, but only from states with similar laws

Idaho does recognize concealed carry permits from other states. However, the recognition is contingent upon whether the state issuing the permit has laws that are substantially similar to Idaho's laws regarding firearms. This means that for a concealed carry permit from another state to be valid in Idaho, it must adhere to specific standards comparable to Idaho's own regulations on concealed carry. This reflects Idaho's approach to ensuring that those carrying concealed firearms meet requirements that align with the safety and training standards established in their own jurisdiction. The requirement for similarity in laws establishes a baseline for safety and responsibility in concealed carry practices, which upholds the integrity of state firearm regulations. In this context, it’s important to note that although recognition is granted based on the similarity of laws, this does not imply universal acceptance of all permits. Not all permits from every state may be honored due to variances in laws or requirements that could impact the safety of concealed carry in Idaho.
