General Information

Effective 5/2/2023, a federal law goes into effect requiring a new type of identification – Real ID – for anyone 18 years and older. This new law requires a Real ID compliant ID to:

  • Board federally regulated commercial aircraft
  • Accessing federal facilities
  • Enter nuclear power plants

After 5/2/2023, a Standard License or Non-Driver ID Card will NOT be acceptable to enter the locations noted above. You will need either the REAL ID Driver’s License or Non-Driver ID Card or another acceptable form of identification*, such as a valid passport, federal government PIV card, or US military ID. *For a complete list of acceptable documents, visit: https://www.tsa.gov/travel/security-screening/identification

 

REAL ID endorsements for a NY Driver’s License or NY Non-Driver ID Card can be processed at select AAA branch locations for AAA members only, but you will need to present certain physical documents to prove your identity. All New York members interested in obtaining a REAL ID should refer to the New York DMV website for complete information, download the application, and see a list of acceptable documents that must be physically presented during your transaction: New York DMV | Federal REAL ID (ny.gov)

 

Enhanced ID (EDL). For an additional fee, New York residents, who are US Citizens, have another option that is Real ID compliant. An Enhanced (EDL) endorsement on a Driver’ s License, permit or Non-Driver ID is a New York State DMV issued document that you can use instead of a passport to return to the US by land or sea from Canada, Mexico and some countries in the Caribbean. It is not acceptable for air travel between these countries. We recommend you contact your travel agent, your cruise line, or the specific countries of destination to verify your travel document requirements.

As with Real ID, you can apply for the EDL at select AAA branch locations for AAA members only, but you will need to present certain physical documents to prove your identity. All New York members interested in obtaining an EDL should refer to the New York DMV website for complete information, download the application, and see a list of acceptable documents that must be physically presented during your transaction: https://dmv.ny.gov/driver-license/get-enhanced-driver-license-edl
