 The
U.S. State Department is currently accepting applications and issuing the new
Passport Card.
The Passport Card, also called
PASS Card, is a
limited use passport in a "wallet size" format. The first Passport Cards were
issued in the summer of 2008 and have been very popular with U.S. citizens. It
takes approximately three weeks for the US Passport Card to be issued, once the
State Department receives the application. As of June 1, 2009 all U.S. citizens
returning from Canada, Mexico, Bermuda or the Caribbean via land or sea borders
must provide a US
Passport Card
or US Passport. Previously, individuals crossing land or sea borders in the
United States could show a drivers license and birth certificate; however, after
June 1, 2009 only government approved documentation is accepted.
The Passport Card is government-issued and serves as proof of identity and
citizenship. It is more convenient than the traditional US Passport in that it
costs less and is the size of a credit card, making it easier to carry. The
Passport Card (also commonly referred to as the border card and PASScard) is
issued by the State Department. The
PASS Card
technology, however, was determined by the Department of Homeland Security
(DHS). The PASS Card, or US Passport Card, is valid for 10 years for individuals
aged 16 and over, and 5 years for children aged 15 and younger.
PASS cards will be added to the existing list of acceptable forms of
identification, which include passports, the Mexican “laser visa,” and the
SENTRI, NEXUS and FAST cards used along the northern border. Federal officials
have touted the PASS card program as a traveler-friendly solution to the
tightened border credential requirement.
The new U.S. Passport Card eliminates the need for two types of documents as it
is a passport in a pocket sized format. It is especially beneficial to business
travelers and other individuals who live in border communities as well as those
that travel frequently (by land or sea) between the United States and Canada /
Mexico. The PASScard will also be a less expensive alternative for cruise ship
passengers traveling from the United States to Bermuda and the Caribbean. The
PASS Card can
also be used for identity purposes including purchasing alcohol and tobacco.
Important: A full size United States Passport is still required for
international air travel. The Passport Card can only be used for land and sea
travel between the United States and Canada, Mexico, Bermuda and the Caribbean.

The PASScard is only available to United States citizens. Both children and
adults will be able to apply for the
PASScard. The
PASS card establishes both
the identity and nationality of the bearer. Individuals who are not yet United
States citizens are encouraged to apply for U.S. citizenship. United States
citizen can have both a
U.S. Passport and a
Passport Card (PASS
Card).
The PASS card is a travel document developed to comply with the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative.
The Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative has the following implementation phases:
- January 23, 2007
The first phase (January 23, 2007) is only related to air travel between the
United States and Mexico, Canada, Caribbean, Bermuda, Central and South America.
All United States citizens must now possess a valid U.S. passport in order to
fly to any country outside the United States.
- January 31, 2008
The second phase (January 31, 2008) is related to land borders and sea borders
between the U.S. and Canada, Mexico, Bermuda and the Caribbean region. All
United States citizens must possess a valid identity document (e.g. U.S. drivers
license) and citizenship document (e.g. U.S. birth certificate) upon return to
the United States. The
PASS Card (Passport Card) is
proof of both identity and U.S.
Citizenship.
The purpose of the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative is to strengthen border
security by requiring visitors and United States citizens to provide secure and
reliable documentation, which identifies the individual and his or her
citizenship. The Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative is based upon the
Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act of 2004, which requires the Department of Homeland Security and Department of State to develop an
identification plan for individuals entering the United States.
