ID Requirements

To Register: AZ driver's license or non-operating ID number (issued after 10/1/1996), or last 4 of SSN. Documentary proof of citizenship (DPOC) required: AZ DL/ID (post-1996) serves as automatic DPOC; also accepted are U.S. birth certificate, passport, naturalization documents, tribal Certificate of Indian Blood, BIA card, or tribal enrollment number.
