Can a CPL holder from another state carry concealed in Washington?

  1. Yes, with no restrictions

  2. No, it is not allowed

  3. Yes, if their state's license is recognized by Washington

  4. Only with special permission from local law enforcement

The correct answer is: Yes, if their state's license is recognized by Washington

A CPL holder from another state can carry concealed in Washington if their state's concealed carry license is recognized by Washington law. This recognition is based on specific agreements and reciprocity arrangements between states. Washington has a list of states whose licenses are honored, and if a person's license is from one of these states, they can legally carry concealed in Washington. The other options do not accurately reflect Washington's laws regarding concealed carry permits from other states. It's essential for anyone planning to carry concealed in Washington to be aware of the state's laws and the status of their home state's license.
