You may have heard of REAL ID. It’s a U.S. law established in 2005, requiring all states to
comply with new identification standards for air travel and entrance to some federal facilities like military bases.

When REAL ID goes into effect in May 2025, you’ll need more than a driver’s license to fly. Options include a foreign passport, military ID, employment authorization card, and many others.

Go toREALIDWA.com to find out if you’re ready for May 2025.

Your standard driver’s license is still valid. Washington will continue to issue standard driver’s licenses and ID cards for driving and/or identification. Using a standard driver’s license or ID card after May 7, 2025 does not indicate citizenship or immigration status.
