Don’t miss this opportunity to get ready for REAL ID!In preparation for the May 7, 2025, enforcement deadline, PennDOT’s Driver and Vehicle Services will be at the Farm Show this week to process REAL ID transactions for Pennsylvanians who are interested in getting one.
Pennsylvania Farm Show in Harrisburg (Giant Expo Hall near the food court):

• Jan. 6 to 10 (8:00 AM to 7:00 PM)
• Jan. 11 (8:00 AM to 3:00 PM)
Getting a REAL ID is optional in PA, but beginning May 7, 2025, Pennsylvanians will need a REAL ID-compliant license/identification card, or another form of federally acceptable identification (such as a valid passport or military ID) to:
• Board domestic commercial flights.
• Enter a military base.
• Enter a federal facility that requires ID at the door.
Federal REAL ID regulations require that, PennDOT must verify the below documents:
• Proof of Identity: examples include an original or certified copy of a birth certificate filed with the State Office of Vital Records/Statistics with a raised/embossed seal, or a valid, unexpired U.S. Passport.
• Proof of Social Security Number (proof must display currently legal name and full nine digits of the Social Security Number): examples include a Social Security card, a W-2 form, a SSA-1099 form, a non-SSA-1099 form, or a pay stub.
• Two Proofs of Current, Physical PA Address: examples include a current, unexpired PA driver's license or identification card, vehicle registration, or a utility bill with the same name and address.
• Proof of all Legal Name Changes (if current legal name is different than what is reflected on proof of identity document): examples include certified marriage certificate(s) issued by the County Court for each marriage, court order(s) approving a change in legal name, or adoption decree issued by your county's family court.
