What to do with Arkansas plates after moving to Arizona

Complete the replacement record

Arizona says an incoming vehicle must be registered as soon as you become a resident.

Put Arizona-acceptable coverage in place before registration and keep the prior policy active until the old registration is safely closed.

Update the Arkansas registration mailing address

After the destination registration is active, use Arkansas DFA's Change Your Renewal Address service to update the mailing address on the vehicle registration. Save the confirmation with the new registration so later Arkansas notices do not disappear at the old address.
