What is a penalty fee?

The penalty fee for late renewal is described in ARS 28-8329A:

If an aircraft required to be registered under this article is not registered within sixty days after its entry into this state and renewed annually on or before the last day of February, a penalty of twenty-five dollars for this first month and five dollars for each succeeding month of delinquency shall be added to the registration fee and collected unless an exemption for the aircraft is established pursuant to this article.

Why are the fees displaying online different from the amounts printed on my aircraft renewal notice?

Your fees on online may be different from the amount printed on your aircraft renewal notice due to one or all of these reasons:

  • A penalty fee is assessed when a payment is not received by the last day of February. The penalty fee is $25 for the first month and $5 for each succeeding month until fees are paid.
  • If you are renewing the aircraft late and the next-year registration fees have been assessed, then the fees displayed online will be prior year, current year and any accrued penalty fees.

How do I verify or change my mailing address?

If you received your aircraft registration form at your current mailing address, then your address is correct.

If you did not receive your aircraft registration form, or the address information shown on the form is not correct, you will need to complete a change of address. You will have the option to update or change your mailing address while renewing your aircraft.

If your aircraft is no longer based in Arizona, please contact the Aircraft Registration Unit at 602.712.6995.
