View Rule

This rule finalizes an interim rule describing eligibility requirements for identification cards issued to uniformed service members, their dependents, and other DOD individuals. These cards are used for proof of identity, DoD affiliation, and to facilitate accessing DoD benefits. This rule amends the Department’s card policy and includes documentation requirements to address the modification of gender in a record for transgender retirees and family members who have completed their gender transition. The rule also updates the CFR to match revised contents of various internal DOD policy issuances and NIST Federal Information Processing Standards. This rule has been merged with, and will be finalized by, RIN 0790-AJ37.
