Nevada Concealed Firearm Permit (CFP) Practice Exam

How long is a Nevada Concealed Firearm Permit valid before it needs to be renewed?

1. 2 years

2. 4 years

3. 5 years

4. 10 years

The correct answer is: 5 years

A Nevada Concealed Firearm Permit is valid for a full five years from the date of issuance. This duration allows permit holders to carry a concealed firearm legally without the need to renew frequently, balancing the need for ongoing training with reasonable time before reapplication. It also reflects an effort to streamline the permitting process while ensuring that permit holders are still competent and responsible in their carrying practices over the years. After five years, a renewal process will begin, where the applicant may need to demonstrate continued competency and comply with any changes in local laws or regulations.
