Virginia broke their agreement with us years ago but I believe it has been reinstated. At least they are on the current list published by the NC AG...
There is a great phone app called “CCW” that tracks this kind of stuff for you and let’s you know details of carrying in your state as well as others that would be hard to find anyplace else. I just clicked on it to see what states the NC CCP is recognized and got this.I have looked everywhere and can't find a definitive answer. I did find a thread here from 2015(?) regarding my question but am wondering if things have changed. Does Virginia recognize a NC CHP? Every concealed carry site I go to has maps, etc. that show they do honor NC permits. My son just took his class and the instructor said "no". The Iredell County Sherriff's dept also told him "no". I've even tried to find the answer in the Virginia statutes. I am sure I am missing something so if anybody could point me in the right direction I would appreciate it.
Thanks in advance.

I always call a sheriff's department to get the answers I need. That helped me last year verifying my USCCA Map which I trust, but verify. The departments were very friendly and helpful... My maps say Virginia is good to go, but I wouldn't do it without verifying. Plus I have to get to Maryland, so that's a no.I have looked everywhere and can't find a definitive answer.

We never lost reciprocity with Virginia. The threat was there but went nowhere. GRNC stated a "boycott" of NC "border" people going into VA to purchase products. Especially gas, which at the time was cheap. We were also behind some political action between the two states. Result was, the proposal was dropped.I have looked everywhere and can't find a definitive answer. I did find a thread here from 2015(?) regarding my question but am wondering if things have changed.
