Final REAL ID Deadline Extended to 2025
Real Id DeadlineFederal Government Announces Final Extension for REAL ID Deadline: October 1, 2025
Washington, D.C. – May 5, 2025 – The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has confirmed that the enforcement deadline for REAL ID compliance will be pushed back one final time to October 1, 2025, giving Americans a last chance to upgrade their driver’s licenses or state IDs before stricter airport and federal facility security measures take effect.
Originally set for October 1, 2020, the REAL ID Act—passed by Congress in 2005—has faced multiple delays due to backlogs at state DMVs, the COVID-19 pandemic, and low public awareness. The updated identification standards require enhanced proof of identity, residency, and legal status to board domestic flights or enter secure federal buildings.
'This is the last extension,' DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas stated in a press conference. 'After October 1, 2025, travelers without a REAL ID or an acceptable alternative, such as a passport or military ID, will not be permitted through TSA checkpoints.'
What You Need to Know:
REAL ID vs. Standard Licenses: REAL IDs are marked with a star in the top corner. If your license lacks this, you’ll need to upgrade.
How to Get One: Visit your local DMV with required documents (e.g., birth certificate, Social Security card, and two proofs of address). Some states offer online pre-verification.
Alternatives: Passports, passport cards, and Trusted Traveler Program cards (e.g., Global Entry) will still be accepted for air travel.
With only five months remaining, DMVs nationwide are bracing for a surge in applications. 'We urge people not to wait until the last minute,' said Lisa Williams, a spokesperson for the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators. 'Processing times may increase as the deadline approaches.'
