Are you REAL ID ready? On May 7, 2025, U.S. travelers must be REAL ID compliant to board domestic flights and access certain federal facilities.
Beginning May 7, 2025, every air traveler 18 years of age and older will need a REAL ID compliant driver’s license or identification card, or another TSA-acceptable form of identification, for domestic air travel and to enter certain federal facilities. TSA publishes a list of its acceptable identification documents on its website at tsa.gov/real-id.
Are you cleared for takeoff?
If you want to use your license or ID card to fly, gather your REAL ID required identity documents – most customers need to show just four documents* proving lawful presence in the United States, their SSN, and residency in Massachusetts.
Customers who have changed their name need to show additional proof documents. Do you need more information? You can find it here.
