How to approach an SR-22 requirement

Review the notice

Identify the reason for the filing, effective date, required period, and separate reinstatement steps.

Compare policies

Ask about liability limits, deductibles, exclusions, fees, cancellation rules, and filing cost.

Confirm submission

Ask when the insurer will send the electronic certificate and how to verify MVD has recorded it.

Important: Buying a policy or submitting an SR-22 does not by itself guarantee driving privileges are reinstated. Follow every instruction from Arizona MVD and the court or agency involved.

Arizona SR-22 requirements: the basics

Arizona accepts SR-22 filings for certain future-financial-responsibility requirements. Insurers submit the certificate electronically to the Arizona Department of Transportation Motor Vehicle Division (ADOT MVD).

Arizona’s minimum liability limits are commonly stated as $25,000 bodily injury per person, $50,000 bodily injury for two or more people in one accident, and $15,000 property damage. Higher limits may be appropriate for your circumstances.

A three-year filing period applies in many common cases, but the required period and start date depend on the reason for the requirement. Check your official notice rather than assuming a deadline.

Frequently asked questions

What is an SR-22 in Arizona?

An SR-22 is a certificate of financial responsibility filed by an insurer when required by Arizona MVD. It is not a standalone insurance policy.

How long must I keep an SR-22?

The period depends on the reason for the requirement and the dates in your official notice. Three years is common for some cases, but other rules can apply. Confirm your own dates with MVD or the issuing agency.

What are Arizona’s minimum liability limits?

Arizona’s commonly stated minimums are $25,000 bodily injury per person, $50,000 bodily injury for two or more people per crash, and $15,000 property damage.

Will an SR-22 automatically reinstate my license?

No. Other fees, waiting periods, court obligations, or MVD steps may apply. Confirm your status directly with the appropriate agency.

What if my policy lapses?

A lapse during a required period may lead to further consequences, including possible suspension. Ask the insurer how cancellations are reported and maintain qualifying coverage.
