TSA Proposes Extending 2025 Real ID Deadline to 2027 for Domestic Air Travelers Over 18

Nov 7, 2024, 10:15 AM

The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has proposed extending the Real ID enforcement deadline from 2025 to 2027, potentially providing additional flexibility for travelers. With questions arising like "What is a Real ID?", it's important to note that under current regulations, starting in 2025, all travelers over the age of 18 will be required to present a Real ID-compliant identification to fly domestically within the United States. With only six months remaining until the initial deadline, travelers are encouraged to obtain the necessary documentation, although the proposed extension may offer more time.
