Compare licensing rules

Pick up to three states or countries to see their rules side by side.

Mississippi
StatusNo specific licence
ReciprocityNone possible without a state licence; Louisiana's board lists Mississippi among states with no PI licensing law.
Recording callsOne-party consent
GPS trackersNo Mississippi statute bans fitting a tracker to a vehicle; the stalking law (Miss. Code 97-3-107) can apply where tracking forms part of a course of conduct aimed at a person. The Legislature's 2025 and 2026 measure lists contain no bill on vehicle tracking.
FirearmsNo investigator-specific firearms rule. General state carry law applies, and the Department of Public Safety issues firearm permits, including the enhanced carry licence.
