To be eligible to vote a full ballot in Arizona, you must provide proof of citizenship when registering to vote.
If you have an Arizona state ID, you can use the National Voter Registration Form. Provide the ID number in Box 6, and this will serve as your proof of citizenship.
If you do not have an Arizona state ID, you can submit the Arizona state registration form with Box 10 or 11 filled out. You can use a Tribal ID, Alien Registration, Naturalization Certificate, or Citizenship Certificate number as your proof of citizenship.
Regardless of which form you use:
- Fill out the form completely.
- Print, date, and sign the form. If you do not have a printer, you can print the form out at any local library. If you do not have a stamp, you can buy one from any grocery store: just ask the cashier to sell you one.
- Mail your voter registration form your local election office.
- Contact your local election office to find where to register to vote in person.
- Bring your Arizona driver's license or state ID card with you. If you don't have one, bring ONE photo ID that shows your name, and ONE document that shows your name and Arizona address. Acceptable documents include a utility bill, bank statement, paycheck, residential lease, or any government document that shows your name and address.
For a first felony that is not an election-related offense, voting rights are restored upon completion of prison, parole, probation, and the payment of all fees (including restitution). For any other situation, citizens will have to apply to the court to have their voting rights restored.
