Beginning May 7, 2025, the federal government will require you to present a REAL ID compliant driver's license or ID card, or another federally approved form of ID, to board a domestic flight or enter a secure federal facility or military base (some military bases may already require REAL ID or a federally approved form of ID).
If you do not currently possess a REAL ID (non-compliant documents will have the words “federal limits apply” in the right-hand corner) you will need to go to your local DMV or equivalent to apply for a REAL ID and bring the appropriate documentation during the application process.
