The REAL ID, or other federally accepted IDs, will also be required to enter secure federal buildings and visit military installations. Beginning Oct. 1, 2020, current South Carolina licenses and IDs will no longer be accepted.

The cards will be available to the public in 2018. For those interested in getting a REAL ID, you can begin the process now of changing your current driver’s license.
To change your card to a REAL ID, the SCDMV must have all of the following documents on file:
- Proof of Identity (Government-issued birth certificate or valid US Passport)
- Proof of Social Security Number
- Two Proofs of Current, Physical SC Address
- Proof of All Legal Name Changes
People may bring these documents to the SCDMV now.
