Arizona Chapter 7 Exemptions
Arizona is an opt-out state, so an Arizona debtor may not elect the federal Section 522(d) exemptions and must use the Arizona state set (Ariz. Rev. Stat. Section 33-1101 et seq.). (Source: Nolo, Filing for Bankruptcy in Arizona.)
Homestead, Vehicle, and Wildcard
Arizona has NO wildcard exemption, so any asset not specifically listed is not protected. (Source: Nolo, Filing for Bankruptcy in Arizona.)
