This info comes straight from the MD Firearms Training Group web page. I did not know that there was a distinction between the two regarding the holder's name being public record (FL) and confidential (UT). Interesting!
Utah Concealed Firearm Permit
Covers 28 states or 31 states for Utah residents
Issued: Residents of any state & legal resident aliens
Turn around Time: 60-70 days
Valid for 5 years
Renewals: Every 5 years
Requires: No subsequent classes for renewals
Other: Names of permit holders are confidential
The Utah Concealed Weapon Permit is issued by the State of Utah and is therefore in a standardized format. The Utah permit only authorizes the concealed carry of a handgun even though it uses the term weapon and this also applies to out of state permits used in Utah. The states of Florida, Michigan and New Hampshire will accept the Utah permit only when presented by a resident of Utah. Thus, when carried by a non-resident of Utah, the Utah permit is valid in 28 states instead of the 31 states for Utah residents Utah is more strict with respect to the applicant's background and a conviction for any of the following either will or may result in a denial of the permit application:
Felony
Crime of violence
Offense involving alcohol in the last 5 years
Offense involving unlawful use of narcotics or other controlled substances (some misdemeanors > 15 years old may be okay)
Offense involving moral turpitude
The Florida CCW
The Florida CCW permit is as a good permit that is available to both residents and non-residents. However, it is twice the cost of the Utah permit and more than 10 times as much to renew every five years. It remains a good permit but not necessarily as good a value as the Utah permit.
Covers: 28 states or 30 states for Florida residents*
Issued: Residents of any state
Turn around time: up to 90 days
Valid: 5 years
Renewals Every 5 years and requires no subsequent classes for renewals
Live-fire required for all applicants
Other: Names of permit holders are public record
The Florida Concealed Weapon Permit is issued by the State of Florida and is therefore in a standardized format. The Florida permit authorizes the concealed carry of a handgun as well as other weapons such as knives, saps, chemical sprays, etc. in Florida only. In other states that accept the Florida permit, carry is almost always limited to a handgun.
