AZ| The Arizona Department of Insurance and Financial Institutions issued Bulletin 2025-10 on October 30, 2025, calling on all insurers in the state to support individuals and businesses impacted by the ongoing federal government shutdown by offering at least 60 days of premium payment grace periods, postponing cancellations and nonrenewals, refraining from charging late fees or penalties, and providing alternative payment arrangements to help maintain coverage continuity; insurers are also expected to communicate available options to affected policyholders, with relief measures not deemed violations of the Unfair Trade Practices Act as long as they are applied uniformly, and claims must still be processed according to regulatory timeframes.
