Moving to Florida

I am moving to Florida next month. I need to know if Kentucky will honor my ccdw permit being a non resident, also do i have to contact the sheriff's office and let them know i am moving?

Kentucky recognizes Florida permits, both resident and non-resident. http://www.usacarry.com/concealed_carry_permit_reciprocity_maps.html

I don't believe you have to inform anyone when you move, you usually have to wait a time (usually 6 months I think) to become a resident and apply for your new states permit, and from my experience with GA, KY and TN, most states will give you a grace period where your old permit is recognized (per the recipricocity agreement) during the time that your not legally a resident of your new state.

I'm not a lawyer, I don't even play one on TV, so take it for what it's worth, brother.

Not sure, but I AM sure you could call whatever department in Florida that handles permits and get an answer that you could take to the bank.

Peace brother.

There's this website I found:

That will give you some of the information you need. As for having to take the class again, I would call them:

Good luck down there. That's where I am from originally. Enjoy not having to pay state taxes anymore!
