Your license or State ID is considered valid.

However, it will not have a gold star marked in the upper-right hand corner.

If you plan to fly domestically, REAL ID will be required beginning May 7, 2025.

If your credential has "Not for REAL ID Purposes":

  • It does not meet the new federal security standards

  • You cannot use to board domestic flights starting after the new May 7, 2025 deadline

  • You cannot use to enter military bases, secure federal facilities, or nuclear power plants starting May 7, 2025
