Abortion Laws in Arizona

Last Updated: July 22, 2025

Mandatory Counseling and Waiting Period

  • Requires in‑person counseling followed by a 24‑hour waiting period before the abortion can be performed

Parental Consent for Minors

  • If 17 or younger, you must have written, notarized consent from one parent, or obtain a judicial bypass 

Gestational Limits

  • Abortion up to 15 weeks is permitted. After that, only to save the woman's life.

Out‑of‑State Considerations

  • If past 15 weeks and exceptions don't apply, you may need to go out of state. Use a provider search tool and contact clinics early. For help, call the NAF Hotline: 1‑800‑772‑9100.
