Does Virginia recognize concealed handgun permits from other states?

Yes, from all states
No, from no states
Yes, but only from states with reciprocal agreements
Yes, but only from neighboring states

The correct answer is: Yes, but only from states with reciprocal agreements

Virginia does recognize concealed handgun permits from other states, but only from those states with which Virginia has entered into reciprocal agreements. This means that if a state has a mutual agreement with Virginia to recognize each other's concealed handgun permits, then individuals with permits from those states can legally carry concealed handguns in Virginia. It's important for concealed handgun permit holders to stay updated on which states Virginia has reciprocity agreements with in order to ensure they are following the law when traveling with their firearms. Option A is incorrect because Virginia does not recognize permits from all states, only from those with reciprocal agreements. Option B is incorrect because Virginia does recognize permits from some states. Option D is incorrect because the recognition of permits is not limited to neighboring states only, but rather any state with a reciprocal agreement.
