Reply to comment by grandlewis in TIL Japan is considered the world's most powerful passport, with visa-free access to 193 countries. Singapore and South Korea are close behind with 192 countries. Syria, Iraq, and Afghanistan are the least powerful, all with visa-free access to 30 or less countries. by grandlewis

Nope.

From the DHS website:

> Q: Can I use my REAL ID card to cross the border into Canada and Mexico and for international travel?

> A: No. REAL ID cards cannot be used for border crossings into Canada, Mexico or other international travel.

The real ID is required for domestic flights and if you don’t have it, then you can use a passport. The new requirements are actually stricter, not less.

I am not sure what the exact difference between Real ID and Enhanced Drivers License is, but Enhanced will get you into Canada.

No idea . Lol. I got the upgraded ID that has to be verified with your address and whatnot, as well as a passport and whenever I go to MX they always ask for passport. Maybe it’s a Canada thing only.
