How it works
First, you will register, pay and take our online video course. The course is taught by an instructor who is both state-certified and nationally-certified. The video is about 45 minutes long and upon completion of the video you will see a link where you can continue on to take a simple 20-question test. Upon passing this test, you will have your certificate, which you can then print and use to apply for your permit.

Applying for the permit in Idaho
Apply to the Sheriff. You can fill out application and do everything right there. You must have your Photo
ID and proof of training. Some Sheriff’s offices provide the training. Check with your local Sheriff.
Idaho Code provides that the sheriff may collect any additional fees necessary to cover the cost of processing
fingerprints lawfully required by any state or federal agency or department, and the cost of materials for the
license lawfully required by any state agency or department. Different Sheriffs are reporting different costs.
They range from $60.00 to $80.00 which covers the cost of “Issuing the Permit”, “Background Check” and
other charges. Check with your Sheriff on costs. The Permit/License is valid for 5 years.
