Are fingerprinting and a photograph required for a Virginia Concealed Handgun Permit application?

  1. Fingerprinting only

  2. Photograph only

  3. Both fingerprinting and photograph

  4. Neither is required

The correct answer is: Both fingerprinting and photograph

Both fingerprinting and a photograph are required for a Virginia Concealed Handgun Permit (CHP) application. Fingerprinting helps law enforcement conduct a thorough background check on the applicant to ensure they meet all the necessary requirements for obtaining a CHP. The photograph is used for identification purposes and is included on the permit itself. These measures help maintain the integrity and security of the permitting process, ensuring that only qualified individuals receive a CHP.
