What is a U.S. passport card and what does it cost?

A U.S. passport card is an optional form of photo identification that fits inside a standard wallet. A passport card can be obtained alongside a passport book and is sufficient identification for domestic air flights, as well as land and sea travel within North America. NOTE: A U.S. passport card cannot be used as identification for international air travel. For that, you must use a U.S. passport book.

A U.S. passport card costs $30 for an adult and $15 for a child.
