REAL ID in Wyoming: What You Need to Know

A REAL ID is a federally compliant driver's license marked with a gold or black star. Since the federal enforcement deadline, you need a REAL ID (or a valid U.S. passport) to board domestic flights and enter certain federal facilities. A standard Wyoming license is still valid for driving.

To get a Wyoming REAL ID for the first time, you must visit a Wyoming DOT office in person with your identity, Social Security, and residency documents. There is no additional fee — you pay the standard $30 renewal cost. If you already have a Wyoming REAL ID, renewing it follows the same process as a standard renewal.
