The Aharonov–Bohm effect in noncommutative (NC) quantum mechanics is studied. First, by introducing a shift for the magnetic vector potential we give the Schrödinger equations in the presence of a magnetic field on NC space and NC phase space, respectively. Then, by solving the Schrödinger equations, we obtain the Aharonov–Bohm phase on NC space and NC phase space, respectively.
