LESSON 4: Important things to know about renewing your license

When you renew your License to Carry in Texas, there are several important points to keep in mind. 

First and foremost, it’s essential that you renew your license before the expiration date or you could face a lapse in coverage and be in violation of the law. You should receive a renewal notice in the mail before your license expires, but it’s important to stay on top of it so you don’t forget.

The process for renewing your license will depend on your location and county. Some counties may require an appointment while others do not. You can check with your local Department of Public Safety office to find out what the requirements are for your area.

You will also need to submit payment for the renewal fee and provide proof of your identity and residence. Make sure to double-check all information you submit to make sure everything is correct and up to date. 

Finally, it’s important to remember that even if you have a license to carry, you should still always practice safe firearm handling and be familiar with state laws concerning firearms and concealed carry. Make sure to take refresher courses on safety and self-defense if needed.
