Starting May 7, 2025, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) will require travelers to present a REAL ID-compliant license or another form of acceptable identification to pass through airport security checkpoints.

Travelers who do not have a REAL ID can still fly with one of several other valid forms of identification. View the full list of acceptable IDs on the TSA website.

To learn more about REAL ID, including how to obtain one and answers to common questions, visit the REAL ID FAQ page from the Department of Homeland Security.
