Will I need to obtain a REAL ID to travel if I have TSA PreCheck®?

All travelers, including TSA PreCheck® enrollees, must have a REAL ID or other acceptable form of identification (e.g., passport) in order to fly once TSA is enforcing the REAL ID requirement at airports.

To obtain a REAL ID, contact your state’s driver’s licensing agency.
