Arizona OHV/ORV Laws and Regulations

Do you need Arizona OHV education?

Arizona

Arizona does not require off-road vehicle operator education.

There is no minimum age requirement to take this online course.

You do not have to be a resident of Arizona to take this online course.

Elsewhere

OHV education is currently required in several U.S. states and Canadian provinces.

Is the OHV Card the same as the OHV License?

The Arizona OHV Safety Certificate is proof that you have successfully completed all of the components of an approved OHV safety course and allows you to go off-roading. Because the OHV education card or certificate does not expire and does not need to be renewed, it is not called the Arizona OHV License.

Why OHV Safety Education Is Important

These vehicles have been increasing in popularity during the past decade. As trails and recreation areas become more crowded, it’s especially important for people to operate these vehicles safely and responsibly.

Reciprocity

All states and provinces that have mandatory education requirements will accept the Arizona OHV Safety Certificate. Likewise, Arizona will accept certifications that are issued by other states and provinces. (This is known as “reciprocity.”)
