Summary

Delaware Governor has signed HB345 into law, amending Title 11 of the Delaware Code to modify the process for obtaining licenses to carry concealed deadly weapons. The bill was introduced on April 9, 2026 and referred to the House Judiciary Committee. Four bipartisan sponsors from both chambers supported the legislation.

“An Act To Amend Title 11 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Applications For Licenses To Carry Concealed Deadly Weapons.”

Why this matters

Delaware residents seeking concealed carry licenses and current permit holders should review their license status, as amendments to Title 11 may affect renewal procedures, eligibility requirements, or application timelines. FFL holders and firearms retailers operating in Delaware may experience downstream effects from any changes to the licensee population.
