TSA PreCheck® is an expedited security screening program that connects travelers departing from more than 150 U.S. airports with smarter security and a more convenient travel experience. TSA PreCheck® travelers do not need to remove shoes, laptops, liquids, belts or light jackets at security checkpoints. TSA PreCheck® helps take the stress out of travel for more than 2 million travelers who have enrolled in the TSA PreCheck® program.

Passengers interested in enrolling in TSA PreCheck® are encouraged to begin the application process by pre-enrolling online and then making an appointment at a local center. Upon arrival, trained agents verify approved identity documents (a birth certificate or passport and another government issued ID) and obtain biographic information before live-scanning applicants’ fingerprints and securely transmitting the application package to TSA for review. The agency completes the application vetting process and issues a Known Traveler Number (KTN) via mail once the application is approved. An applicant can check the status online by visiting https://universalenroll.dhs.gov/ and clicking on “Check Status.” Applicants pay an $85 processing fee, which covers five years of access to TSA PreCheck®. The entire application process takes just a few weeks to complete.
