What documents do I need for TSA PreCheck?
For most applicants, an unexpired passport may be the best choice of identification to bring to a TSA PreCheck appointment. That's because it serves as photo ID and proof of citizenship. There are several other acceptable documents, but it's always important to provide original or certified copies. In addition, the name on the documentation you provide at this time must match the name you put on your TSA PreCheck application.
Below are several documents from the TSA webpage for required documentation, Opens overlay that are accepted at PreCheck appointments. As of May 2023, either one document from List A or two documents from List B are required:
