The nonlocal electrodynamics of accelerated systems is discussed in connection with the development of Lorentz‐invariant nonlocal field equations. Nonlocal Maxwell's equations are presented explicitly for certain linearly accelerated systems. In general, the field equations remain nonlocal even after accelerated motion has ceased.
