Utah Concealed Carry Permit: DUI Within 5 Years Disqualifies You

Under Utah law, a DUI conviction within the past 5 years makes you ineligible for a Concealed Firearm Permit (CFP).

Utah Code §53-5-704(2)(b) lists disqualifiers, including:

• Conviction for DUI (or alcohol-related reckless driving) within 5 years of application.
• Two or more DUIs ever (lifetime disqualification unless pardoned/expunged).

Other bars: Felony, domestic violence, protective order, adjudicated mental incompetence, unlawful drug use, dishonorable discharge, renounced citizenship.

If your DUI is >5 years old and it's your only one, you may apply. You'll need to disclose it; the Bureau of Criminal Identification (BCI) will review. Consult a Utah firearms attorney if uncertain.
