Do I need an enhanced driver's license or state ID card if I am younger than 18?
Beginning June 1, 2009, travelers must present an identity and citizenship
document approved under WHTI to gain re-entry into the U.S. from Canada, Mexico,
Bermuda or the Caribbean. WHTI was enacted to heighten border security against
terrorism and illegal entry.
U.S. citizens age 16 or older must present one of the WHTI-approved
documents, such as an enhanced license or ID card, passport, passport card or
Trusted Traveler card.
U.S. citizens under the age of 16 must present their birth certificate
(original or a photocopy) or other proof of U.S. citizenship such as a
naturalization certificate or citizenship card.
U.S. citizens ages 16-18 traveling under adult supervision with a
school or religious group, social organization or sports team need only present
their birth certificate (original or a photocopy) or other proof of citizenship.
