TSA in Puerto Rico

TSA checkpoints and offices in Puerto Rico are located at the state's commercial airports, where federal Transportation Security Administration officers screen passengers and baggage before boarding. Puerto Rico travelers should check whether their departure airport is REAL ID-compliant and whether it participates in TSA PreCheck expedited screening lanes.

Puerto Rico travelers flying domestically or internationally must present a REAL ID-compliant driver's license or another accepted form of federal identification at the TSA checkpoint — standard state driver's licenses that are not REAL ID-compliant are no longer accepted for boarding domestic flights.

Frequent flyers in Puerto Rico who have not yet enrolled in TSA PreCheck should consider doing so before their next trip — enrollment is available at airports and dedicated enrollment centers throughout Puerto Rico, and the expedited screening benefit can save significant time at busy checkpoints during peak travel periods.
