The Real ID requirement officially goes into effect on May 7, 2025, after two decades of delays since the lawâs passage in 2005. Designed to improve security following the 9/11 attacks, the Real ID is necessary to board domestic flights and enter certain federal facilities. Individuals can acquire a Real ID through their stateâs licensing agency. While some states have issued Real IDs for years, many people are still uncertain if they possess one. The deadline marks a significant step in national security and identification protocols.
A Real ID will be required in most circumstances to board a domestic flight in America, enter certain federal facilities, or access nuclear power plants.
The Real ID requirement goes into effect today, marking the culmination of 20 years of legislative delays following the original act passed in 2005.
