§ 18.65.725. Permit renewal.

 (a) A permittee shall apply for renewal of a permit to carry a concealed handgun within 90 days before the expiration of the permit, on a renewal form approved by the department. The renewal form must include        (1) any change in the information originally submitted under AS 18.65.710 ;

 (2) a statement that the person remains qualified to receive and hold a permit to carry a concealed handgun under AS 18.65.705 ;

 (3) one frontal view photograph of the person taken within the preceding 30 days that includes the head and shoulders of the person and is of a size specified by the department;

 (4) the renewal fee required under AS 18.65.720 ; and

 (5) the warning listed in AS 18.65.710 (a)(6).

 (b) [Repealed, § 15 ch 94 SLA 2000.]  (c) A renewal of a permit to carry a concealed handgun submitted on or after the expiration date is subject to a late fee of $25. The department may not accept a renewal for a permit that is submitted more than 60 days after the expiration date of the permit. Nothing in this subsection prohibits the holder of an expired permit from applying for a new permit.

 (d) A renewal form under (a) of this section may not inquire of a permittee about, or require the submission of, information beyond that described in (a) of this section.

 (e) Notwithstanding AS 18.65.705 (3), a permittee does not become ineligible to hold a permit, and need not return or surrender a permit, when ceasing to be a resident of the state, and the department may not require a permittee to return or surrender a permit because a permittee ceases to be a resident of the state. However, a permittee may not renew a permit if the permittee is not a resident of the state at the time of renewal.

 (f) The department shall mail the permittee a notice of expiration by first class mail at least 90 days before expiration of the permit.
