LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) – The Nebraska State Patrol is again reminding Nebraskans holding a permit to carry a concealed handgun that, for some of them, it’s time to renew those permits before they expire.
Such permits issued in Nebraska are good for five years. If the permit is renewed before its expiration, the permit holder will not be required to retake a certified training course. The cost for renewing a permit is $50.
Those who allow their permits to expire will be required to retake a certified training course and pay a $100 fee for a new permit.
Since 2007, the State Patrol has issued 16,185 conceal carry permits. Nearly 3,500 were issued within the first year.
