How long is a FOID card valid before it needs to be renewed?

5 years
10 years
1 year
3 years

The correct answer is: 10 years

A FOID card, or Firearm Owner's Identification card, is required for any individual who wishes to possess a firearm in the state of Illinois. The correct answer is 10 years, as FOID cards are valid for a period of 10 years before they need to be renewed. It is important to remember to renew your FOID card before it expires, as failure to do so could result in legal consequences. The other options, 5 years, 1 year, and 3 years, are incorrect as they do not match the actual expiration period for a FOID card.
