How long is my CHP valid?
Your permit is good for 5 years. Most counties will not notify you upon renewal time.
If I am a current CO resident, is my out of state permit still valid in CO?
No. Colorado no longer recognizes the validity of any permit issued by any state to a nonresident of that state (see C.R.S 18-12-213 amended 2007), specifically they must be a resident of the state that issued the concealed handgun permit and must be in possession of a valid driver’s license or identification card issued by that same state.
