TSA PreCheck® for Transportation Worker Identification Credential (TWIC®) cardholders

Many TWIC cardholders meet the criteria for the TSA PreCheck Application Program and may be eligible for expedited screening. In addition to having a valid TWIC card, the TWIC holder must:

  • Be a U.S. citizen, U.S. lawful permanent resident, or U.S. national
  • Be approved for a TWIC outside TSA’s waiver process
  • Not be under investigation as a result of TSA’s recurrent vetting

In order to participate TWIC cardholders should take the CIN on the back of their TWIC card and enter it in the known traveler number field of airline reservations made with a participating airline or in airline profiles. Visit TSA PreCheck for TWIC for more information.
