Ohio allows permitless concealed carry for qualifying adults aged 21 and over while still issuing concealed handgun licenses for reciprocity and other benefits.
Senate Bill 215 (effective June 13, 2022) made Ohio a permitless or constitutional carry state. Qualifying adults who are not legally prohibited from possessing firearms may carry a concealed handgun without a permit. Ohio still issues Concealed Handgun Licenses through county sheriffs under ORC 2923.125, which require training and a background check and provide reciprocity with other states. ORC 2923.12 governs the offense of carrying a concealed weapon and lists statutory exceptions.
Carrying concealed in prohibited places or by disqualified persons is a misdemeanor or felony depending on circumstances under ORC 2923.12.
