Arizona relies on the federal National DNC Registry for consumer registrations but enforces state-level telemarketing regulations under ARS Title 44, Chapter 9, Article 6. Telemarketers must register annually with the Arizona Secretary of State. Full registration costs $500/year (sliding scale based on month filed), limited and exempt registrations are free. Full registrants must file a surety bond ($10,000-$100,000) with the State Treasurer. Caller ID blocking is prohibited. Pre-recorded voice calls and unsolicited calls to mobile/paging systems are restricted. State penalties range from $100 to $25,000 per violation. Federal TSR penalties can reach $43,792 per call. Contact: AZ Secretary of State Telephonic Seller Registration at 602-542-6187.
