No county solicitor permit required in unincorporated Pima County. Transient merchants must post a $50,000 bond under ARS 44-1221. Trespass law (ARS 13-1502) protects homeowners.
Unlike many incorporated cities in Arizona, unincorporated Pima County has no dedicated solicitor registration or permit ordinance. Door-to-door salespersons, canvassers, and charitable solicitors may operate without a county-issued permit. However, transient merchants selling goods door-to-door must comply with ARS 44-1221 through 44-1234, which requires filing a $50,000 surety bond with the Secretary of State and providing consumers with a 3-day right of cancellation. Charitable solicitors are separately governed by ARS 44-6551 (Arizona Charitable Solicitations Act), requiring registration with the Secretary of State. Aggressive or threatening solicitation may constitute disorderly conduct under ARS 13-2904. The Pima County Sheriff responds to trespassing complaints if solicitors refuse to leave private property after being asked.
Transient merchant violations under ARS 44-1234: Class 1 misdemeanor, up to $2,500 fine and 6 months jail. Trespassing: Class 3 misdemeanor under ARS 13-1502.
