How long is a Rhode Island concealed carry permit valid before it needs to be renewed?

  1. 1 year

  2. 2 years

  3. 4 years

  4. Indefinite, does not require renewal

The correct answer is: 4 years

A. 1 year is incorrect because a concealed carry permit in Rhode Island is valid for a longer period of time than just 1 year. It is not the shortest valid duration for a concealed carry permit. B. 2 years is incorrect because while it is longer than 1 year, it is also not the longest valid duration for a concealed carry permit in Rhode Island. D. Indefinite, does not require renewal is also incorrect because while some states do have permits that do not expire, Rhode Island does require permit holders to renew their concealed carry permit every 4 years. This means that the permit is not valid indefinitely and does require renewal. In summary, the correct answer is C because it is the longest valid duration for a Rhode Island concealed carry permit before it needs to be renewed.
