Read below for information on the Real ID Act and how it affects your ID requirements for domestic travel based on the state you live in.<\/p>\n
In nine states, your driver licenses will no longer be valid identification for domestic flights in 2018. This change comes with the establishment of the REAL ID Act.<\/a>\u00a0These nine states do not meet the Act’s minimum security standards, therefore you will need your passport to travel domestically.<\/p>\n Despite the confusion stemming from ever-changing dates, deadlines, and extensions related to the REAL ID Act, there is a simple solution to avoid any stress at the airport. A passport card or book will override all state regulations!<\/p>\n For more detailed and specific information by state, here are the rules and dates you need to know:<\/p>\n Alabama<\/p>\n Arizona<\/p>\n Arkansas<\/p>\n Colorado<\/p>\n Connecticut<\/p>\n Delaware<\/p>\n Florida<\/p>\n Georgia<\/p>\n Hawaii<\/p>\n Indiana<\/p>\n Iowa<\/p>\n Kansas<\/p>\n Maryland<\/p>\n Mississippi<\/p>\n Nebraska<\/p>\n Nevada<\/p>\n New Mexico<\/p>\n North Carolina<\/p>\n Ohio<\/p>\n South Dakota<\/p>\n Tennessee<\/p>\n Texas<\/p>\n Utah<\/p>\n Vermont<\/p>\n West Virginia<\/p>\n Wisconsin<\/p>\n Wyoming<\/p>\n <\/p>\n These states have been granted an extension that goes through 10\/10\/18.
