SB 1070 Announcement:

Most states, including Arizona, require verification of citizenship to receive a driver’s license. Therefore, in most cases a driver’s license is sufficient to prove citizenship.  In regards to SB 1070, please note that Arizona police officers will not ask for identification unless some violation of Arizona law has occurred. 

Below is a list of acceptable identification:

• Any U.S. State or Government Identification Card* (i.e. Driver’s License)
• U.S. Passport
• Military DD-214
• Military Dependent Identification Card
• Visa
• Green Card
• Birth Certificate
• Tribal Identification Card

*There are states that do not use a Driver’s License as proof of citizenship: New Mexico, Illinois and Utah.  The state of Washington provides an enhanced form of Driver’s License that can be used as proof of citizenship. Travelers should check with their state’s MVD office to determine if their state’s Driver’s License is proof of citizenship.
