There are 12 states, along with the District of Columbia, that require you to inform immediately upon contact with law enforcement. There are also an additional 12 states with laws that stipulate you must notify only when asked by law enforcement. Some states have no duty to inform laws at all.

It is your responsibility to know the duty to inform requirements of the locality in which you reside as well as those through which you travel.
