REAL DLs/IDs Deadline Extended

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has extended the deadline to obtain a REAL ID, the federally mandated identification needed for passengers to board aircraft, one year to October 1, 2021 due to circumstances resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. Visit the Department of Homeland Security website at www.dhs.gov for additional information.

With the extension, travelers will not need a REAL ID, Enhanced Driver's License or ID or a passport book or passport card to board domestic flights or to enter federal facilities until October 1, 2021.

The Minnesota Department of Public Safety has additional information about REAL ID. For information about obtaining a passport book or passport card, visit the U.S. Department of State website. 

Once the License Center reopens, please expect longer wait times due an expected backlog of expired licence renewals and new driver’s license and identification card requirements for those choosing to obtain a REAL DL/ID.
