Is the REAL ID the same as the driver's license in Texas?
Is the REAL ID the same as the driver's license in Texas? Because Texas is in compliance with the REAL ID Act, all Texas driver licenses and identification cards are currently valid forms of identification for federal purposes. If your card expires after May 7, 2025, and you want a REAL ID compliant card, you can request a duplicate card either in person or through Texas.gov.
