2. Concealed Carry Across
State Lines
Every state has different legislation and
requirements for concealed carry. As such,
your home state permit might not be valid
even as close as the next state over, but
across the country there might be states you
can legally concealed carry in.
Some states do have provisions for traveling,
though that is not always the case and those
statutes are usually very strict if they exist.

3. What Is Concealed Carry Guide?
For the total novice, new handgun owner or anyone that's just curious
about it, ccw reciprocity is a legal mechanism where by one
government agrees to honor, recognize or otherwise accept something
granted by another state. It could be almost anything; driver's license,
credit card laws, et cetera.

48. Vermont Concealed Carry Guide
State Reciprocity-
There is no Vermont concealed carry
reciprocity. Vermont is a constitutional
carry/permitless carry state and thus any
resident or nonresident can carry, openly or
concealed, without a permit. A person
merely needs to to be legally able to
possess a firearm. Thus, no permit is
needed for nonresidents or travelers to
carry in Vermont. Since the state does not
issue a permit to residents or nonresidents,
there is no Vermont license for other states
to recognize or reciprocate with.
Vermont residents can, however, obtain a
permit from a state that issues nonresident
permits if they wish to carry outside
Vermont.
