Florida non-resident Concealed Carry Permit

Seal of the State of Florida
Florida offers the ability for non-residents to obtain a Florida Permit. This course satisfies the training requirements as established in Senate Bill 954, April 1999. We also provide the non-resident application. Most students attending the Ohio permit course also decide to obtain a Florida permit since it is recognized in more states than the Ohio permit. You can obtain both permits by attending this course with no additional cost for the course.

NOTE:  This permit course is especially useful for the OH students because it expands the number of states you can carry in. Defensive Handgun Training LLC provides the FL training for no additional cost. Kentucky residents already have reciprocity with the states offered by this additional course, so it is not necessary if you are a Kentucky resident.
