In 2022, Indiana repealed laws that previously generally required a permit to carry concealed or openly carried handguns in most public places.¹ People who are not prohibited under state or federal law are now generally authorized to carry handguns as well as long guns without a license or permit, although some location restrictions apply. See the Indiana Concealed Weapons Permitting and Location Restrictions pages for more information.
