The new feature uses your&nbsp;U.S. passport to create the digital ID and you present it with your&nbsp;iPhone or Apple Watch. The feature starts rolling out&nbsp;today, November 12, 2025, with initial in-person acceptance in&nbsp;beta at TSA checkpoints across 250+ U.S. airports&nbsp;for domestic travel. More acceptance points and use cases (including in apps and on the web) will follow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-s-new-and-how-it-s-different-from-driver-s-license-in-wallet\"><strong>What\u2019s new\u2014and how it\u2019s different from Driver\u2019s License in Wallet<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Until now, Wallet supported state-issued&nbsp;Driver\u2019s License\/State ID&nbsp;in select states.&nbsp;Digital ID&nbsp;expands access by letting anyone with a&nbsp;U.S. passport&nbsp;create a Wallet ID\u2014even if their state doesn\u2019t support Wallet IDs or they don\u2019t have a REAL ID-compliant license. The feature is meant as a way to simply provide proof of identification and it\u2019s&nbsp;not a true replacement&nbsp;for your physical passport and&nbsp;can\u2019t be used for international travel or border crossings.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Apple also notes that Driver\u2019s License and State ID in Wallet remain available (now live in&nbsp;12 states and Puerto Rico, with recent additions and Japan\u2019s My Number Card launch)\u2014Digital ID simply adds another path to a secure, on-device ID.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-setup-works-passport-wallet-in-a-few-minutes\"><strong>How setup works (Passport \u2192 Wallet in a few minutes)<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Apple\u2019s setup for Digital ID uses both the printed page and the&nbsp;<strong>secure chip<\/strong>&nbsp;in your passport to verify authenticity:&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>In Wallet on iPhone, tap&nbsp;<strong>\u201c+\u201d \u2192 Driver\u2019s License or ID Cards \u2192 Digital ID<\/strong>.<\/li><li>Scan the passport\u2019s photo page&nbsp;with your iPhone.<\/li><li>Read the passport\u2019s chip&nbsp;with your iPhone when prompted.<\/li><li>Take a selfie&nbsp;and complete&nbsp;facial\/head movements&nbsp;for verification.

Availability can vary by checkpoint and time of day, so watch for signage at security.
