No. This is a total myth. If you ask an undercover police officer whether or not he's a cop, he does NOT have to answer truthfully.

Do undercover officers carry weapon?

Officers who are working in true "undercover" assignments are playing a 24-hour role where they not only have a different job, but a different name, residence, friends, etc. If that person is carrying a firearm and it would be uncharacteristic for the role they are playing, the firearm can give away their true occupation as a law enforcement officer. For this reason, undercover officers frequently work unarmed. If they do carry a firearm, the firearm is of a type usually one not associated with police. Undercover officers usually carry no police identification, as they don't want it to be found if someone goes through their personal belongings. Confusing "undercover" and "plainclothes" assignments is commonplace. A plainclothes officer performs traditional enforcement and investigative duties that may include frequenting places, such as bars, where a uniformed officer would draw too much attention. Even so, the plainclothes officer reports to the police station every day to begin work, carries a police firearm, and has his police identification on his person at all times.
