Google Wallet is rolling out some new features, one of which is the ability to store digital US passports. Announced in September 2024, this new feature is currently in beta testing. It aims to make travel smoother for users at certain TSA checkpoints.
Users can easily add passports to the Google Wallet by following a few easy steps. Just go to the “Add to Wallet” menu and check the option for “U.S. Passport (beta)” alongside other IDs like driver’s licenses.
Now, users take a photo of their passport’s information page and scan a security chip located on the back cover. To do this, they need to lay the passport flat, open the back cover, and move their phone around the chip area. Additionally, users must record a short video of their face for Google to verify their identity.
This passport feature is available mainly for domestic flights in the U.S. and devices that run Android 9 or higher. It uses NFC technology to securely share information.
