What must a non-resident of Arizona do to legally carry a concealed weapon in the state?

  1. Obtain an Arizona driver's license

  2. Obtain a special non-resident permit

  3. Ensure their home state's permit is recognized by Arizona

  4. Nothing, as Arizona allows constitutional carry

The correct answer is: Ensure their home state's permit is recognized by Arizona

To legally carry a concealed weapon in Arizona, a non-resident can utilize their home state's concealed carry permit, provided that permit is recognized by Arizona. Arizona law recognizes permits that are validly issued by other states, which allows non-residents to carry concealed weapons without needing to obtain an Arizona-specific permit, as long as they adhere to the rules set forth by their home state and any applicable federal regulations. The concept of constitutional carry, where individuals can carry without a permit, does not apply to non-residents in the same manner as residents. As such, a non-resident must ensure their permit is recognized, rather than seeking a new permit or other forms of identification that would not fulfill the legal requirement for carrying concealed in Arizona.
