The Department of Homeland Security reminds you that the upcoming REAL ID requirement and enforcement will start in a little more than seven months. Beginning October 1, 2020, every air traveler must present a REAL ID-compliant driver’s license, state-issued enhanced driver’s license, or other acceptable forms of identification, such as a valid passport or U.S. military ID, to fly within the United States. If you do not have an acceptable form of identification, you will not be permitted to enter the TSA checkpoint and will not be allowed to fly.
