REAL ID

To fly within the U.S., the TSA requires a REAL ID-compliant driver’s license or another acceptable form of identification like a passport or U.S. military ID.

A REAL ID-compliant card typically has a star at the top. If you’re unsure whether your ID qualifies, contact your state driver’s license agency for information or how to get a REAL ID.

If you do not have an acceptable ID, you may expect delays and additional screening at the airport.
