Real ID/Domestic Travel

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) reminds travelers that the upcoming REAL ID requirement and enforcement will start in 2025.
Beginning May 7, 2025, every traveler must present a REAL ID-compliant driver’s license, state-issued enhanced driver’s license, or other acceptable forms of identification, such as a valid passport or U.S. military ID, to fly within the United States. Individuals who are unable to verify their identity will not be permitted to enter the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) checkpoint and will not be allowed to fly. If you are not sure if your ID complies with REAL ID, check with your state department of motor vehicles.

British Virgin Islands

When traveling to the British Virgin Islands, including Tortola and Virgin Gorda, all U.S. citizens traveling outside of the United States are required to present a passport or other valid travel document to re-enter the United States. In addition to the above documentary requirements, U.S. citizens should also present onward or return tickets, and proof that they have sufficient funds for their stay in the BVI. Upon initial entry, a stay of no more than 30 days will be granted. At the end of 30 days, visitors must report to the Immigration Department's main office in Road Town, Tortola to request an extension.

Nevis

U.S. citizens must have a valid U.S. passport to enter Nevis. No visa is required for stays up to 90 days if you have an onward or return ticket, confirmation of accommodation, and can produce evidence of your ability to maintain yourself. Generally, all U.S. citizens are required to present a valid U.S. passport when traveling to Nevis, as well as proof of anticipated departure from Nevis.
