HB 2200 Arizona House · 57th Legislature - First Regular Session

professional registration; reciprocity; endorsement

Arizona's HB 2200 establishes new rules for professionals seeking to practice in Arizona through reciprocity or endorsement. It requires out-of-state applicants for engineering, architecture, land surveying, or landscape architecture licenses to hold a valid license from another state or country participating in mutual recognition agreements, plus certification from their profession's national council. The bill also mandates specific experience, education, or exam requirements for engineers (like 4+ years post-licensure or a national exam), and requires land surveyors to pass Arizona's state-specific surveying exam. This law, signed by the governor in April 2025, directly affects licensed professionals moving to Arizona from other jurisdictions.
