Question: 1 / 400

Can a non-resident apply for a concealed carry permit in Mississippi?

Yes, without restrictions

No

Yes, but only if they work in Mississippi

In Mississippi, non-residents are indeed allowed to apply for a concealed carry permit, but there are specific requirements that must be met for the application to be valid. One of the key stipulations is that the applicant must have a valid Mississippi driver’s license or a photo identification card and must either work in the state or be a member of the military.

This means that the option stating that a non-resident can apply only if they work in Mississippi reflects the correct context of the law. Non-residents who do not meet this criterion cannot simply apply for a concealed carry permit without demonstrating a connection to the state, thus ensuring that the state has some level of oversight and understanding of the applicant's background.
