Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

3 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 2 costs, 0 mixed.

Permit account surplus funds suicide prevention

The law directs half of the Concealed Weapons Account's yearly revenue above expenses to the Suicide Prevention and Education Fund. The transfer is due within 90 days after each fiscal year ends. This replaces a transfer based on half of the account's total fund balance. The law does not specify a dollar amount or provide a direct household payment.

Higher annual fees for registered offenders

Beginning May 7, 2025, covered offenders pay $125 annually, up from $100, through June 30, 2026. Payment is due in their birth month each year they must register. Another registering agency may also charge up to $25 annually. People confined in a secure facility or state mental hospital are exempt from these annual fees. Beginning July 1, 2026, the Department of Public Safety sets both fees through state fee-setting procedures. A coordination rule also applies the $125 fee to the registry chapter amended by S.B. 41 when both laws apply.

Higher firearm permit fees for nonresidents

Through June 30, 2026, Utah's added fee for nonresident concealed firearm applications rises from $10 to $35. The added nonresident renewal fee rises from $5 to $30. These charges are on top of the base application and renewal fees. Beginning July 1, 2026, the Bureau of Criminal Identification sets fees through state fee-setting procedures. This covers applications, renewals, replacements, late filings, provisional permits, and instructor certifications; the law does not specify those future amounts.
