Is fingerprinting required for CPL renewal in Washington?

  1. No, fingerprinting is not required for renewal

  2. Yes, for every renewal

  3. Only for the first renewal

  4. Only if there has been a lapse in the license

The correct answer is: No, fingerprinting is not required for renewal

In the state of Washington, fingerprinting is not required for CPL (Concealed Pistol License) renewal. This is because the fingerprints are already on file from the initial application process. However, if the license has lapsed, meaning it has not been renewed within 90 days after the expiration date, then fingerprints would be required for renewal. This can be done at any point during the renewal period without penalty. Option B is incorrect because fingerprinting is not required for every renewal. Option C is incorrect because fingerprints are not required only for the first renewal. Option D is incorrect because fingerprints are only required if the license has lapsed, not for every renewal or for the first renewal.
