What action should you take if your CCW permit is lost or stolen in Ohio?

  1. Report to the police within 48 hours

  2. Nothing, it will be automatically replaced

  3. Apply for a new permit immediately

  4. Wait for it to expire and then renew

The correct answer is: Report to the police within 48 hours

If your CCW permit is lost or stolen in Ohio, it is important to report it to the police within 48 hours. This is the responsible and legal action to take in order to prevent any potential misuse of your lost or stolen permit. Waiting for it to be automatically replaced, as suggested in option B, is not a valid course of action as it may take longer than 48 hours and leave you vulnerable in the interim. Applying for a new permit immediately, as suggested in option C, is also not recommended as there may be a gap in time where you are in possession of multiple permits, which can result in legal complications. Finally, waiting for your permit to expire and then renewing, as suggested in option D, is not a valid approach as it will leave you without a valid permit during the renewal process.
