Does Maryland recognize concealed carry permits from other states?

  1. Yes

  2. No

  3. Only from states with reciprocal agreements

  4. Only from neighboring states

The correct answer is: No

Maryland does not recognize concealed carry permits issued by other states. This means that individuals who hold a concealed carry permit from another state cannot legally carry a concealed firearm in Maryland unless they also possess a Maryland-issued wear and carry permit. It's important for gun owners traveling to Maryland to be aware of this law, as it affects their ability to carry a concealed weapon within the state. Reciprocal agreements between states can sometimes allow for the recognition of permits, but Maryland’s laws are specific in this case. Therefore, options relating to mutual recognition or neighboring states do not apply within the context of Maryland’s firearm regulations.
