How long is a Virginia Concealed Handgun Permit valid?

  1. 2 years

  2. 5 years

  3. 10 years

  4. Indefinitely

The correct answer is: 5 years

The correct answer is B, which is 5 years. In Virginia, a Concealed Handgun Permit (CHP) is valid for a period of 5 years from the date of issuance. After the 5-year period, permit holders need to renew their permit to continue carrying concealed weapons legally. This renewal process helps ensure that permit holders are still eligible and compliant with the relevant laws and regulations.
