Who issues a Virginia Concealed Handgun Permit?

  1. Virginia State Police

  2. Local City or County Clerk's Office

  3. Department of Wildlife Resources

  4. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives

The correct answer is: Local City or County Clerk's Office

A Virginia Concealed Handgun Permit is issued by the Local City or County Clerk's Office. The Virginia State Police do not issue these permits, nor does the Department of Wildlife Resources or the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. These organizations may have involvement in the process of obtaining a permit, but the actual issuance takes place at the Local City or County Clerk's Office.
