New identification requirements in place for DOD Civilian Retirees
Effective immediately: Retiring or Retired DOD civilians should register a Real ID Act compliant identification into the Defense Biometric Identification System. To register, retirees should bring their retirement SF-50 to Pass & ID or the Visitor Control Center. Once registered, retirees can present their enrolled Real ID for base access. Or, as a temporary measure, retiring or retired DOD civilians without a Real ID Act compliant identification will be issued a DBIDS card valid through June 30, 2024. To register, retirees should bring their retirement SF-50 to Pass & ID or VCC. After registration, the DBIDS card can be used for base access.
