You will need to present a valid US federal or state-issued picture ID, such as a driver's license, passport or REAL ID compliant state-issued ID. A non-US citizen is required to provide a passport. The building security guards cannot accept other documents nor waive these requirements. Starting October 1, 2020, any state-issued picture ID presented by a visitor to a federal facility (such as VOA) MUST be REAL ID compliant.
