Several revenue offices across Arkansas will be open on Saturday to assist residents in obtaining a REAL ID as the deadline approaches. Starting May 7, a REAL ID will be necessary for boarding flights and accessing certain federal buildings or nuclear plants.
The Arkansas Department of Finance and Administration will open the following revenue offices from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. on Saturday, April 26:
- Little Rock Revenue Office (Ragland Building): 1900 West 7th Street
- Fayetteville Revenue Office: 3086 West Martin Luther King, Jr. Boulevard
- Jonesboro Revenue Office: 206 Southwest Drive
- Texarkana Revenue Office: 801 East 4th Street
- Monticello Revenue Office: 506 West Gaines
To obtain a REAL ID, residents must provide documentation confirming proof of residency, legal presence, identity, and Social Security number. Required documents include:
- Passport or birth certificate
- Two proof of address documents, such as utility bills or bank statements (dated within the last six months)
- Proof of identity (e.g., Current Driver’s License, School or Work ID card)
- Social Security card
- Name change justification (e.g., Marriage Certificate, Divorce Decree, Court order)
The cost of obtaining a REAL ID is the same as getting or renewing a regular license or ID. It is $10 to transfer an existing expiration date on a license or ID to a REAL ID. A new, eight-year REAL ID costs $40.
