A new Washington resident holding a concealed carry permit from another state is required to apply for a Washington Concealed Pistol License within 30 days of establishing residency in Washington. This requirement ensures that individuals who wish to carry a concealed pistol in Washington are compliant with the state's specific laws and regulations regarding firearm ownership and carrying procedures. By mandating this time frame, Washington aims to maintain public safety while allowing new residents to transition their concealed carry status in accordance with state law. It also emphasizes the importance of understanding local laws, which may differ from those of other states, ensuring that all concealed carriers are informed about their rights and responsibilities in Washington.
