For how long is a Wear and Carry Permit valid in Maryland before it needs to be renewed?

1 year
2 years
3 years
5 years

The correct answer is: 2 years

In Maryland, a Wear and Carry Permit is valid for a period of 2 years. This aligns with the state's approach to ensuring that all permit holders regularly verify their eligibility and remain informed about legal responsibilities related to carrying firearms. Regular renewals contribute to ongoing safety training and compliance with any updates to gun laws, thereby promoting responsible firearm ownership. The other durations are not applicable as they either extend beyond the state regulations or do not correspond with the policy set forth for this specific type of permit.
