You will need to add a $51.00 (non-residents) check or money order and mail everything in the envelope.
Where is the training location?
This course is conducted in our training facility. We also will conduct this course at your location. Since Utah does not require any shooting, most locations that offer undistracted space will do. If you have a business, garage, clubhouse, or spacious living room, etc. and are willing to host the students you invite, in most cases we will be able to bring the Utah Concealed Firearm Permit Course to you. We offer a discount if you have a group of 5 or more.
In what states will I be allowed to carry after I receive my Utah Concealed Carry Permit?
The Utah Concealed Carry Permit allows the permit holder to carry their firearm concealed in any of the 31 listed reciprocating states. (These states may change at any time. It is up to the individual permit holder to check the Utah Bureau of Criminal Identification website for an updated list. Additionally we will provide you with a training certificate that you will be able to submit with other state applications if you decide to apply for other state non-resident Concealed Carry Permits.
