Arizona Prerecorded Messages Compliance

Robocall and prerecorded message compliance rules in Arizona

⚠

Mini-TCPA State — A.R.S. § 44-1271 et seq.

Arizona has enacted a state-level TCPA that goes beyond federal requirements. Federal compliance alone is not enough for Prerecorded Messages operations here.

Consent Requirements

Consent LevelWritten Consent Required

One-to-One Consent Required

Shared consent from lead generators is NOT valid. Consent must specifically name your company.

Checkbox ConsentNot sufficient
StatuteA.R.S. § 44-1271 et seq.; 47 U.S.C. § 227(b)(1)(A)

Arizona explicitly restricts prerecorded solicitation messages. Combined with federal TCPA, prior express written consent is required for prerecorded marketing calls to cell phones. Arizona's private right of action adds state-level risk for violations.
