A Wear and Carry Permit may be renewed for successive periods of three (3) years each if, at the time of an application for renewal, the applicant possesses the qualifications for the issuance of a permit and pays the renewal fee.
The renewal process is the responsibility of the applicant and should be started 90 days from expiration of the permit. Timely renewal is the responsibility of the permit holder. The Licensing Portal will send out renewal reminders for Wear and Carry permit applications that have been submitted through the Licensing Portal. The renewal reminder will be sent via email to the confirmed email address associated with the applicant's Licensing Portal account.
??Wear and Carry Permit holder's seeking to renew their Wear and Carry Permit are not required to submit Livescan fingerprints as part of the renewal.
Unless exempt from the training requirement, the renewal of a Wear and Carry Permit requires an applicant to successfully complete the Maryland State Police approved 8 hour Firearms Safety Training Course provided by a Qualified Handgun Instructor. The applicant will be required to upload a completed and signed MSP 29-14 Certified Qualification Score Sheet? to the documents section of the Wear and Carry Permit Renewal Application in the Licensing Portal.? Additional information on the Firearms Safety Training Course, including persons exempt from the training requirement can be found on the Wear and Carry Permit Training page?. Additional information regarding Qualified Handgun Instructors can be found here.
?RENEWAL APPLICATION PROCESS - The Wear and Carry renewal application process closely mirrors the original application process. The applicant will log into their Licensing Portal account and begin the Application for Wear & Carry Permit (Handgun Permit). The system will recognize that the applicant has a current Wear and Carry Permit and adjust the application accordingly. The renewal application will have numerous pages pre-populated from the original application. The applicant should verify all pre-populated information and assure it is valid and current. The applicant will be required to upload all required documentation and may be prompted to update their passport style photograph. Once the application has been completed and all required documentation has been uploaded, the applicant will be directed to the application payment page. Once the application fees are entered, the application will be finalized and submitted to the Licensing Division. The Licensing Division will review the application for completion and accept all complete applications. Applications that are incomplete or missing required information and/or documentation will be sent back to the applicant for corrections. Corrected applications can be resubmitted for acceptance by the Licensing Division. Accepted applications will have a criminal history background check completed and a final disposition assigned as outlined above in the APPLICATION PROCESS section.
Please allow 90 days for completion of the renewal application process
?IMPORTANT REMINDER REGARDING WEAR AND CARRY PERMIT RENEWALS: Wear and Carry Permit renewal applications must be submitted? prior to the expiration date of the current Wear and Carry Permit. Wear and Carry Permit renewal applications submitted after the current permit expiration date will result in the rejection of the Wear and Carry Permit? renewal application and require a new Wear and Carry Permit? application be submitted with a new 16-hour firearms safety training certificate and proof of a new Livescan fingerprint submission.
