Permit to carry holders providing notification of a change of legal name requirement provision

This bill requires Minnesota permit to carry holders to notify the issuing sheriff within 30 days of legally changing their name. It amends existing law to specifically include name changes alongside address changes and lost permits as reporting requirements. Failure to report a name change is a petty misdemeanor punishable by a $25 fine for a first offense. Permit holders must pay a $10 fee to obtain a replacement permit card after submitting the required notification. The bill directly affects individuals holding Minnesota permit to carry licenses who legally change their name.
