Are fingerprints required for a Virginia CHP application?

Yes, for all applicants
No, fingerprints are not required
Yes, but only for non-residents
Yes, but only for first-time applicants

The correct answer is: No, fingerprints are not required

Fingerprints are not required for a Virginia CHP (Concealed Handgun Permit) application for all applicants, whether they are residents or non-residents. This means that individuals who have already been issued a CHP in Virginia do not need to submit fingerprints again when renewing their permit. Additionally, first-time applicants do not need to submit fingerprints either. This is because Virginia uses a background check system that does not require fingerprinting. Options A, C, and D were incorrect because they all incorrectly state that fingerprints are required in some way.
