The Arizona State Board of Nursing's Online Verification system is a free service provided to licensees, employers and the public. Online verification should not be the sole source of verification and the original license, drivers license or social security card should be requested to determine validity. Do not accept a photo copy of the license as a reliable verification that the person is licensed.

Results will be returned quickly and will give you the following information:

  • Name of the licensee or certificate holder.
  • License or certificate type.
  • License or certificate number.
  • Date license or certificate was originally issued.
  • Actions taken by the Board of Nursing.

    • Disciplinary Action - Includes Civil Penalty, Decree of Censure, Probation, Suspension, Revocation, and Voluntary Surrender within the past ten years. Disciplinary action taken more than ten years ago can be obtained by written request.
  • The status of the license or certificate including whether the individual has multi-state privileges.
    • Multi-state privileges means the nurse can work in any compact state using their Arizona license.
  • Whether or not the individual has prescription privileges.
  • Whether or not the individual has dispensing privileges.
  • The individuals AP specialty type if any.
  • Whether or not the individual has been fingerprinted by ASBN.
