Got ID? Miami-Dade Resource

What is a Miami-Dade Community ID?

Many residents, including citizens, do not meet the necessary requirements to receive a driver’s license or state-issued identification.

The Miami-Dade Community ID makes it easier for them to identify themselves to law enforcement, schools, health centers, city departments, and social service agencies.

Who can apply?

Any resident of Miami-Dade County can apply for a Community ID card.

This ID is especially useful to formerly incarcerated persons, foster youth, transgender persons, the homeless, new immigrants, refugees, or anyone who might face difficulties obtaining a state-issued ID.

Here are just a few of the places you can use this ID.

• Miami-Dade Public Libraries
• CAHSD ( Community Action and Human Services Department)
• DTPW (Department of Transportation and Public Works)
• MDFR ( Miami-Dade Fire Rescue)
• PROS (Parks, Recreation, and Open Spaces Department)
• WASD ( Water and Sewer Department)

Important Notes:

• This is NOT a federal ID and cannot be used to drive, travel by plane or vote.
• It does NOT affect immigration
