Is a Voluntary Travel ID right for you?

​​​​​​​

A Voluntary Travel ID is a federally compliant credential accepted at airport security checkpoints for domestic travel and restricted federal facility entry, such as military bases. You may already own a federal credential accepted at these locations, such as a passport or military ID, that you can use instead of a Voluntary Travel ID. If you prefer to use a state-issued license, permit or personal ID, please take the following quiz.​

A Voluntary Travel ID is right for you. It complies with federal requirements to board U.S. domestic flights, though you can continue to use your current, standard license for U.S. air travel until federal enforcement begins on October 1, 2020. At that point, a Voluntary Travel ID or other federally accepted form of identification will be needed for domestic flights and entrance into restricted federal facilities.

A Voluntary Travel ID is not recommended for you based on your answers. A standard driver's license can be used to drive, for general identification purposes (i.e., voting, signing a lease), and access federal buildings that provide essential benefit services.
