Alabama recognizes concealed carry permits issued by all other U.S. states, as outlined in Section 13A-11-85 of the Alabama Code. However, individuals residing in Alabama must obtain an Alabama Pistol Permit to carry legally within the state. Non-residents with valid concealed carry permits from their home states are allowed to carry in Alabama but must adhere to Alabama’s firearm laws while present in the state.
