Beginning October 1, 2020, you will not be able to fly on a commercial flight unless you present a REAL ID compliant credential to TSA (or other acceptable proof of identity such as a passport). Approximately 92% of Florida credentials are REAL ID compliant, but that still leaves over one million Floridians holding a non-compliant credential.

EFFECTIVE JANUARY 2, 2020, customers who are not REAL ID compliant will be unable to renew or replace their credentials online through GoRenew.com. If they go online to renew, they will receive a message that they are required to visit an office and provide additional documentation.

Are you REAL ID compliant? If you have a gold star on the top right of your driver license or identification card, then yes, you are REAL ID compliant.
