How often must an Iowa Permit to Carry Weapons be renewed?

  1. Annually

  2. Every 3 years

  3. Every 5 years

  4. It does not expire

The correct answer is: Every 5 years

An Iowa Permit to Carry Weapons must be renewed every 5 years. This is determined by Iowa state law, which requires permit holders to update their licenses every 5 years. Option A and B (annually and every 3 years) are incorrect because they do not align with the state law. Option D (does not expire) is incorrect because Iowa permits do have an expiration date and must be renewed.
