Does AZ POST accept peace officer certifications from every state in the union?
No, they do not. Every out-of-state lateral applicant is dealt with on a case-by- case basis. AZ POST makes the decision as to whether or not an out-of-state lateral applicants respective state certification is in compliance with AZ POST standards. Please go to the AZ POST website at www.azpost.gov to learn about the peace officer waiver process for out-of-state lateral officers. IF YOU ARE A FEDERALLY CERTIFIED OFFICER ONLY (WITH NO CURRENT OR PREVIOUS STATE CERTIFICATION), IT IS HIGHLY RECOMMENDED YOU CONTACT AZ POST (WWW.AZPOST.GOV) TO DETERMINE IF THEY WILL ACCEPT YOUR FEDERAL LAW ENFORCEMENT CERTIFICATION; MANY TIMES THEY DO NOT*.
