Do you fly commercially?

The deadline has been extended to October 2021 due to COVID-19.You will also need a REAL ID gold star to enter a federal building that requires ID or a nuclear facility after October 2021. To get your REAL ID gold star, you will need to visit us in person and bring additional documents with you. Find out more about Real ID.
