Permit to carry holders required to provide notification of a change of legal name.
This bill requires Minnesota permit to carry handgun holders to notify their issuing sheriff within 30 days of a legal name change. It amends Minnesota Statutes section 624.714 to specify that failure to provide this notification is a petty misdemeanor punishable by a fine of up to $25. Permit holders who update their name must also pay a $10 fee to obtain a replacement permit card. The law directly affects individuals holding concealed carry permits who legally change their name, ensuring official records reflect their current legal identity.
