Utah Reciprocal Agreement Canceled
ARIZONA DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC SAFETY
POST OFFICE BOX 6638
PHOENIX, AZ 85005-6638
April 13, 2002
The Department of Public Safety's Concealed Weapon Permit Unit received a request from the State of Utah to cancel Intergovernmental Agreement #KR99-016-TRN pertaining to the Carry Concealed Weapon Reciprocal Agreement which was put in place on April 27, 1999.
This cancellation request from the Utah Department of Public Safety was based on requirements pursuant to amended Utah Code 76-10-523. This amended statute effectively terminates all reciprocal CCW agreements on file between the State of Utah.
Arizona CCW permit holders will be allowed to carry concealed in the state of Utah for a period of 60 days. If a person with an out-of-state permit remains in Utah for longer than 60 consecutive days, that person is required to obtain a Utah permit. Utah permit holders will no longer be allowed to carry concealed in the State of Arizona without an Arizona, Alaska, Arkansas, Kentucky or Texas Concealed Carry Permit.
It is extremely important that all Arizona Permit holders be aware of the CCW requirement and laws of all reciprocating states. An Arizona CCW permit does not supersede any other state's law or CCW requirements. For example; legal conduct with a Arizona CCW permit in the State of Arizona, may not be legal in the State of Arkansas with an Arizona permit.
For instance:
If you carry concealed in Arkansas with an Arizona CCW permit, you can only carry a concealed firearm. No knives can be carried concealed with our permit in the state of Arkansas. Violation of Arkansas's CCW statutes will get your CCW reciprocal privilege suspended in the State of Arkansas, and pending the classification of the violation, Arizona may suspend or revoke your Arizona CCW permit.
If you are carrying concealed in another state with a Arizona CCW permit and your weapon is visible, you can be cited for misconduct with a weapon, and have your weapon and permit seized. Your CCW reciprocal privilege will be suspended in the State of Utah and pending the classification of the violation, Arizona may suspend or revoke your Arizona CCW permit.
A.R.S. ? 13.3112.T allows for the Arizona Department of Public Safety to enter into reciprocal agreements with states that have concealed weapons laws substantially similar to our laws. Therefore, The Concealed Weapon Permit Unit has determined that in order to meet the requirement of A.R.S. ? 13.3112.T other states with a CCW programs must:
Be a shall issue state
Perform criminal history checks on all applicants
Availability of an automated database 24-hours a day to verify permit status for law enforcement use
Have standard disqualification, suspension & revocation requirements
Have required training which covers the following
Deadly force issues
Mental conditioning
Weapons care/maintenance
Safe handling/storage
Marksmanship
Judgmental Shooting
Have a minimum age issuance of 21
Require applicants be a U.S. citizenship
Deny for mental illness
Deny for a misdemeanor domestic violence convictions
Deny for a felony convictions
Expiration date on permit
After these items have been verified, the Arizona Concealed Weapon Permit Unit will forward a reciprocal agreement for consideration by the appropriate CCW unit for that state. These agreements are reviewed and amended by the both CCW units and legal sections, prior to being signed by the respective directors/heads of the agency having the mandated authority.
