How To Tell If I Have A Real ID?

Check your card for a star marking

Look for a star in the upper right corner of your driver’s license or state ID

If it says “REAL ID” on the card, it is a Real ID

If it has a gold or black star, it is usually a Real ID

If it says “Not for federal identification” or similar wording, it is not a Real ID

Compare it with your state’s DMV Real ID sample online

Contact your state DMV to confirm your ID type

If you obtained it after providing extra identity documents for federal ID purposes, it may be a Real ID
