How long is a CCW permit valid in Ohio?

  1. 2 years

  2. 5 years

  3. 10 years

  4. Indefinite

The correct answer is: 5 years

In Ohio, a CCW permit is typically valid for 5 years. This means that once you obtain your CCW permit, you can legally carry a concealed weapon for a period of 5 years before needing to renew it. It is important to keep track of the expiry date on your permit and renew it in a timely manner to ensure you can continue to carry your concealed weapon legally. Option A is incorrect because the permit is not valid for only 2 years. Option C is also incorrect as the permit is not valid for 10 years. Option D, indefinite, is not accurate as CCW permits in Ohio do have an expiration date and must be renewed.
