What Is an Arizona MVD Alcohol Screening?
An MVD alcohol screening is a 30- to 45-minute verbal interview with an Arizona-approved DUI screening provider. It is not a urine, drug, or blood test.
The screening serves two distinct purposes:
1. It qualifies you for a restricted driver’s license
Your license is suspended for 90 days after a DUI arrest. This screening is required before you can apply for a restricted license, starting on day 30.
2. It determines your program hours if convicted
Your results assign you a 16-, 36-, or 56-hour education or treatment program. You can’t choose your hours; the screening does.
Who Needs a DUI Alcohol Screening in Arizona?
Arizona law and MVD requirements generally require alcohol screening before restricted license eligibility or reinstatement. You’ll need this screening if:
- You were cited or arrested for a DUI in Arizona, even before your case is resolved in court.
- You’re applying for a restricted or reinstated Arizona driver’s license.
- You’re an out-of-state driver with an Arizona DUI, and your screening needs to come from an Arizona ADHS-licensed provider.

MVD Screening vs. Court-Ordered Screening: What’s the Difference?
These two screenings are easy to confuse, but they serve different purposes:
MVD Alcohol Screening
- Required by the Motor Vehicle Division.
- Needed to apply for a restricted driver’s license or reinstate full driving privileges.
- Completed through an ADHS-licensed provider like Stonewall DUI Services.
- Focused on license reinstatement and determining potential education or treatment requirements.
Court-Ordered Screening
- Required by the court.
- Part of the sentencing requirements if convicted of DUI.
- Also completed by an ADHS-licensed provider, but reported to the court rather than the MVD.
- Focused on court compliance and required education or treatment assignment.
Depending on your case, you may need one or both. Stonewall can help you understand which requirement you are completing and where your results need to be reported.
What Happens After Your MVD Alcohol Screening?
Once your screening is complete:
✓Your program level is determined. Depending on your screening results, your assigned program may be a 16-hour class, 36-hour class, or 56-hour class.
✓You may become eligible to apply for your restricted license once your screening is on file and you have met the MVD’s timing and eligibility requirements.
✓If you’re later assigned a full education or treatment program, Stonewall can complete that with you, too.

MVD Alcohol Screening FAQs
What is MVD alcohol screening in Arizona?
It’s a 30 to 45-minute verbal interview with an ADHS-licensed agency, not a urine, drug, or blood test. The Motor Vehicle Division requires it before you can apply for a Restricted Driver’s License.
Is the MVD alcohol screening a drug and alcohol test, and how do I pass it?
No. There is no urine, blood, or breath test, so there’s nothing to “pass” or “fail” the way a drug test works. Your MVD alcohol screening (sometimes referred to as an MVR alcohol screening) is a verbal interview about your alcohol use and history with a qualified professional.
How long does MVD alcohol screening take?
The screening process is typically quick, lasting approximately 30-45 minutes.
What do they look for in alcohol screening?
The screening reviews required background information related to your DUI case and alcohol use history so the correct education or treatment requirement can be assigned.
What do I need to bring or have ready?
Your citation or court documents and a state-issued ID. For online screenings, you’ll also need a stable internet connection and a webcam.
Do I need MVD alcohol screening for a first-time DUI?
Yes, MVD alcohol screening is generally mandatory for anyone arrested for a DUI to reinstate their driver’s license.
What happens if I'm assigned a 36-hour or 56-hour program?
You will complete a series of online classes covering topics like how alcohol affects judgment, recognizing risk factors, and understanding steps that can help you avoid future DUI-related issues. The classes are self-paced online, so you can complete the work around your schedule rather than all at once. If your case requires a higher program level, Stonewall also offers 72-hour and 108-hour DUI treatment programs.
