Key Points:

  • Apple Wallet now supports adding driver's licenses and state IDs for identity and age verification at select U.S. airports, businesses, and apps, currently available in 13 states and Puerto Rico with plans to expand to at least seven more states.
  • Supported states include Arizona, Maryland, Colorado, Georgia, Ohio, Hawaii, California, Iowa, New Mexico, Montana, North Dakota, West Virginia, and Illinois, with future adoption announced in Connecticut, Kentucky, Mississippi, Oklahoma, Utah, Arkansas, and Virginia.
  • The digital IDs are accepted at TSA checkpoints in over 250 U.S. airports for domestic travel, but physical IDs remain necessary since Apple Wallet IDs are not accepted by law enforcement or for other uses.
  • Travelers in states without Apple Wallet ID support can create a Digital ID using their U.S. passport for TSA age and identity verification during domestic travel; this feature requires iOS 26.1 or watchOS 26.1 and later but is not valid for international travel.
  • Participating airports include major hubs such as Baltimore/Washington International, Ronald Reagan Washington National, Denver International, Los Angeles International, Chicago O'Hare, and San Francisco International, among many others.
