REAL-ID REQUIREMENTS IDENTIFICATION FOR INSTALLATION ACCESS
Implementation of the REAL ID Act begins May 7, 2025. That day, and any day after that, anyone 18 years and older that plans to visit certain Federal facilities or fly domestically will need a REAL ID or another acceptable form of identification to enter U.S. military bases, including CNRMA Installations, or board federally regulated commercial aircraft.

The REAL ID Act, passed by Congress in 2005, establishes minimum security standards for state-issued driver's licenses and identification cards. It was enacted in response to the 9/11 Commission's recommendation to improve the reliability and accuracy of identification documents, making it more difficult for terrorists to obtain fake IDs.

What are the implications of the REAL ID Act for accessing military bases?
The standard access requirements remain the same for active duty & dependents, DoD civilian personnel, DoD retired personnel & dependents under the age of 18, vetted veterans in possession of a Veteran Health Identification Card (VHIC) and personnel that have been issued a Defense Biometric Identification Card (DBIDS) for any CNRMA Installation access.

Starting May 7, 2025, non-affiliated individuals requesting access will need a REAL ID-compliant driver's license or another acceptable form of identification to access CNRMA Installations. This applies to everyone, including the following: but not all inclusive:

• Vendors
• Dependents aged 18 and older
• Service Providers
• Veterans with service-connected disabilities
• Contractors
• Visitors (includes visitors in same vehicle with CAC holder)
• Transportation services (taxi, limo, ride share)
