TRAVEL REMINDERS

REAL ID DEADLINE EXTENDED
Travelers must ensure their driver’s license meets REAL ID standards to board domestic flights and access certain federal facilities. As required by the law, following the enforcement deadline, federal agencies, including the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), will be prohibited from accepting driver’s licenses and identification cards that do not meet these federal standards.

ETIAS REQUIREMENTS DELAYED UNTIL 2026
The European Union’s European Travel Information and Authorization System (ETIAS), intended to grant entry approval for visa-exempt nationals visiting the EU for short-term stays, has had its launch postponed to the end of 2026.

Currently, no action is required from travelers. The European Union will announce the precise start date for ETIAS several months prior to its implementation.
