REAL ID in Pennsylvania: What You Need to Know

PA Real ID

Beginning October 1, 2020, Pennsylvanians will need a REAL ID-compliant driver’s license, photo ID card, or another form of federally-acceptable identification (such as a valid passport or military ID) to board a domestic commercial flight or enter a federal building or military installation that requires ID.

REAL IDs are now available to Pennsylvanians who want them. To help you decide if you need a REAL ID, and provide information on what documents you will need and steps you can take to get an optional REAL ID, visit the Pennsylvania REAL ID website.
