This is a sample. Florida is shown here in full, exactly as
it appears in the guide. The bordering states — the part that answers what changes when you
cross — are in the full edition.
Before you go — the short list
The guide opens with this. Every item links to its detail in the full edition.
Carry is workable here — Out-of-state licences honored — resident permits only. Green means simple, not automatic: the age floor and the off-limits list still apply.Go to it →
Duty to inform: Present the licence on demandGo to it →
The thing that catches people here. Florida honors only the resident version of another state's permit — but because concealed carry is permitless for eligible 21+ visitors, most travelers are covered anyway. Florida's own non-resident licence is one of the two best travel permits in the country.Go to it →
Confirm before you travel. Recognition changes by administrative letter, not only by law. The official page is linked on every card.Go to it →
Watch this. Florida honors only the resident version of another state's permit — but because concealed carry is permitless for eligible 21+ visitors, most travelers are covered anyway. Florida's own non-resident licence is one of the two best travel permits in the country.
Every state on Florida's border, each with the same card you have just read — its tier, its
carry rule, whether it takes your permit, whether it issues to non-residents, its duty to inform,
the quirk that catches travellers there, and a verified link to that state's own live page.

And what it does not cover
Said plainly, because you should know before you buy. This edition does not carry:
The off-limits list — buildings, posted signs, school zones and their distances
Vehicle carry, and whether a permit changes it
Magazine and ammunition restrictions where they exist
How to apply for this state's own permit
City and county rules that sit on top of state law
Those need research against each state's own sources, and we will not
print what we have not checked. The linked authority on every card is the answer meanwhile
— and it stays current in a way no printed list can.
