Get Your Real ID
The U.S. federal government requires anyone who boards an airplane for domestic travel or who enters certain federal buildings to show one of these forms of ID:
- A verified REAL ID license
- A verified REAL ID state-issued ID card
- A passport
- Permanent resident card
See additional accepted identification from the Transportation Security Administration website.
A REAL ID is verified by a gold star in the top right corner of your license or ID card. Non-verified IDs don’t have a gold star.
