Is a Nebraska Resident Permit Valid in Idaho?

Why

• Idaho recognizes valid carry permits from every US state.
• Idaho allows permitless carry for eligible adults 18+, which extends to visitors who may legally possess a handgun.

Idaho AG: out-of-state concealed weapons licenses are recognized ('Yes'), with the condition that 'while in Idaho, you must carry the license on your person at all times when carrying a concealed weapon' (Idaho Code 18-3302(5)(g)). No residency or permit-type restriction is stated; permitless carry independently covers US-citizen visitors 18+.
