How long before the expiration of a CPL should you apply for a renewal?

  1. 90 days

  2. 60 days

  3. 30 days

  4. At any time before expiration

The correct answer is: 60 days

To ensure a seamless renewal process of your Concealed Pistol License (CPL) in Washington State, it is recommended to apply for renewal 60 days before the expiration date of your current license. This timeframe allows ample opportunity for processing the application and any necessary background checks to be completed before the existing license expires. Applying within this timeframe helps avoid any gaps in the legality of carrying a concealed weapon, which could occur if the renewal is not processed in time. The regulations are structured to encourage prompt renewal applications, maintaining compliance with the law.
