What is required to renew a Virginia Concealed Handgun Permit?

  1. Completion of an additional firearms training course

  2. A new background check

  3. Both a new background check and an additional firearms training course

  4. None of the above

The correct answer is: A new background check

To renew a Virginia Concealed Handgun Permit, a new background check is required. This ensures that the individual's record is still clear and they continue to meet the necessary criteria for holding a CHP. Unlike obtaining the initial permit which may require firearms training, renewing the permit does not typically mandate the completion of an additional firearms training course. Therefore, option B is correct as it accurately reflects the requirement for a background check during the renewal process.
