The Arizona legislature passed a bill signed by Governor Katie Hobbs on March 31, 2025, that amends Arizona Revised Statutes Section 14-3971 by increasing the small estate probate exemption:
- from $75,000 to $200,000 for the personal property of a deceased Arizona resident.
- from $100,000 to $300,000 for Arizona real estate owned by a deceased person.
This new law will take effect 90 days after the current legislative session ends.
