REAL ID deadline is coming up

The state’s deadline for residents to get a REAL ID compliant driver’s license is coming up in just a few months.

Kentuckians have until May 7 to upgrade their license to be compliant with REAL ID requirements.

The Real ID will be required by travelers 18 or older to board a plane, enter a federal building or a military base. Passports, military IDs or Global Entry cards also will qualify to pass through airport security.

Matthew Cole with the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet said the cabinet is continuing to remind residents about the upcoming deadline to make sure they are prepared in case they need a REAL ID.

For more information, you can contact a regional drivers license office.
