Do I have to get a Real ID in Louisiana? What to know about deadlines and requirements

In Louisiana, a Real ID-compliant driver's license or identification card is required for domestic air travel for individuals 18 years-of-age and older starting May 7, 2025. Real ID driver's licenses cost $32.25, or $18.75 for drivers 70 years-of-age and older. When obtaining a Real ID, residents will have to provide documentation showing your full legal name, date of birth, Social Security number, lawful status and two proofs of address. To get a Real ID, Louisiana residents must visit an Office of Motor Vehicles (OMV) field office or a Public Tag Agent location, says the Louisiana Office of Motor Vehicles. Residents can also obtain Real IDs from title and notary offices, however, an additional convenience fee will be required.
