How soon must you notify the issuing authority of a change in your address after moving, as an Oregon CHL holder?

  1. Immediately

  2. Within 10 days

  3. Within 30 days

  4. No requirement

The correct answer is: Within 30 days

The correct answer is that you must notify the issuing authority of a change in your address within 30 days after moving. This requirement is crucial for maintaining accurate records and ensuring that your concealed handgun license remains valid and can be associated with your current address. If you fail to update your address within the specified time frame, it could lead to complications, such as issues with renewal or potential legal problems if your license is called into question. Keeping your information up to date helps law enforcement and the issuing authority maintain accurate records. While some might think that a shorter period would be more appropriate, the law specifically allows for this 30-day window to accommodate the realities of moving and settling into a new residence. This balance helps provide holders with sufficient time to navigate their personal circumstances while still fulfilling their legal obligations.
