Military spouses residency relief act information Published June 26, 2012 By 1st Lt. Jason Cordova 355th Fighter wing Legal Office DAVIS-MONTHAN AIR FORCE BASE, Ariz. -- Pursuant to Arizona law (A.R.S. 28-2533), it is illegal for non-Arizona residents living in the state to drive without an Arizona-issued driver license and registration. However, Arizona does not require military members and non-resident military spouses to obtain an Arizona driver license or registration. In the event you are subject to a traffic stop, it is a good idea to keep a copy of the letter in the picture with your vehicle registration and insurance documents.
