News: USCIS Begins Producing Security-Enhanced Travel Documents

October 24, 2019

<div class=”field-item even”><p>To prevent secure document tampering, counterfeiting, and fraud, we will begin producing on Oct. 24 a new security-enhanced U.S. travel document, which is a booklet that looks similar to a U.S. passport and serves dual purposes. The travel document can serve in place of:</p><ul><li>
Form I-327, Permit to Reenter the United States: Lawful permanent residents use the Reentry Permit to return from temporary travel outside of the United States and, in some cases, may use a Reentry Permit for travel in place of a passport; and
</li>
<li>
Form I-571, Refugee Travel Document: Those with refugee or asylum status use a Refugee Travel Document if they wish to temporarily travel outside of the United States and, in some cases, may use a Refugee Travel Document for travel in place of a passport.
</li>
</ul><p>The new travel document will include a variety of secure features:</p><ul><li>
Redesigned booklet cover
</li>
<li>
Four montages containing three images, each of notable U.S. architecture, used throughout the booklet
</li>
<li>
A combination of first-, second- and third-level security features (overt, covert and forensic)<ul><li>
Overt is something you can see with the eye, such as the central image of the Statue of Liberty.
</li>
<li>
Covert is something that requires a tool, such as a magnifying glass, to see fine detail artwork.
</li>
<li>
Forensic is something that requires laboratory examination.&nbsp;
</li>
</ul></li>
</ul><p>Prior versions of the travel document will remain valid until their expiration date.</p></div>
<p>Last Reviewed/Updated: 10/24/2019</p>
