Look for a star marking on the card
Check whether the card says “REAL ID”
Verify that it was issued by your state’s DMV or licensing agency
Compare the card to your state’s REAL ID sample online
Check whether it is accepted for federal purposes like boarding domestic flights or entering federal facilities
Look at the issue date, since REAL ID cards are typically issued after your state began REAL ID compliance
Contact your state DMV to confirm the status of your card
