Florida Concealed Carry Laws (2026)
Permitted: Permitless ("constitutional") carry: adults 21 and older who may lawfully possess a firearm can carry concealed without a permit.
Permitless ("constitutional") carry: adults 21 and older who may lawfully possess a firearm can carry concealed without a permit. CHANGING for 18-20-year-olds: on June 17, 2026, Florida's Fourth DCA held the 21+ concealed-carry age floor (Fla. Stat. 790.06(2)(b)) unconstitutional as to 18-20-year-olds (Eubanks v. Florida), and the Attorney General declined further review. FDACS has announced it will issue concealed-weapon licenses to applicants 18 and older who meet all other requirements. Until that licensing is confirmed in effect, anyone under 21 should treat the 21+ floor as still applying. Note: the separate minimum age to PURCHASE a firearm in Florida remains 21 (790.065(13)).
