REGISTER TO VOTE

 

 

Arizona Proof of Citizenship Requirements

Arizona requests proof of citizenship when you register to vote. 

If you don’t provide proof of citizenship, you will be registered as a “federal only” voter. This means you won’t be eligible to vote in state, county, or local elections.

You can change your “federal only” voter status by bringing the required proof to your County Recorder’s office.

Accepted Proof of Citizenship

You can use the number from your Arizona driver’s license or state ID card if it was issued after October 1996.

Voters without an Arizona license or ID can prove their citizenship by providing one of the following:

  • Copy of US passport’s data page showing your name, photo, identifying information and expiration date
  • Indian Census Number, Bureau of Indian Affairs Card Number, Tribal Treaty Card Number, or Tribal Enrollment Number
  • Copy of US naturalization documents or A-Number (Alien Registration Number)
  • Copy of your birth certificate and any legal documents if your name has changed
