What action is required after changing your address if you have a Mississippi concealed carry permit?

No action is required
Notify the Department of Public Safety within 60 days
Apply for a new permit
Notify local law enforcement only

The correct answer is: Notify the Department of Public Safety within 60 days

Under Mississippi law, it is mandatory for individuals with a concealed carry permit to notify the Department of Public Safety if there is a change of address. Specifically, this notification must occur within 60 days of the address change. This requirement ensures that the state has current contact information associated with the permit holder, which is essential for both the permit holder's safety and for maintaining accurate records for law enforcement. Failing to notify the Department can lead to complications, such as difficulties in verifying the permit during a routine check or issues if the permit holder needs to renew their permit in the future. Therefore, ensuring timely communication with the Department of Public Safety reflects responsible gun ownership and adherence to state regulations.
