WestPointAOG.org | 800.BE A.GRAD 15 Foreign Visitors Foreign visitors must be escorted at all times by a qualified escort in order to enter the installation. That requirement can be met by either entering with a DoD identification card holder or taking a bus tour with an assigned guide provided the bus tour agency presents a valid legible manifest. Unescorted Visitors Unescorted visitors are persons 18 years of age and above without a valid (not expired) Department of Defense-issued identification card. Unescorted visitors are asked to report to the Visitor Control Center at 2107 New South Post Road, West Point, NY 10996 to apply for a West Point Local Area Credential (LAC). The Visitor Control Center is open daily from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. When the Visitor Control Center is closed, visitors will be directed by electronic signs to proceed to Stony Lonesome Gate. To expedite the process of obtaining a LAC, we encourage you to fill out and bring a completed Local Area Credential Request form with you. Local Area Credential expiration dates vary due to the length of stay and type of visitor. Please inquire at the Visitor Control Center when applying for your credential. Requirements for Unescorted Visitors Visitors 18 years of age and above will need to have a valid photo ID (e.g., a driver’s license) containing biographical information such as name, address, gender, eye color, and height. Generally, a current driver’s license or passport will suffice for identification, but driver’s licenses and identification cards from specific territories and states that do not comply with the REAL ID Act of 2005 are not to be used as the sole source for identity verification to access Federal installations. Acceptable primary forms of identification, not including a driver’s license, are: 1. United States Passport or United States Passport Card. 2. Permanent Resident Card/Alien Registration Receipt Card (Form I-551). 3. Foreign passport with a temporary (I-551) stamp or temporary (I-551) printed notation on a machine-readable immigrant visa. 4. Employment authorization document that contains a photograph (Form I-766). 5. U.S. Military or draft record. 6. U.S. Coast Guard Merchant Mariner Card. 7. Transportation Worker Identification Card. 8. Native American Tribal Document. 9. In the case of a nonimmigrant alien authorized to work for a specific employer incident to status, a foreign passport with Form I-94 or Form I-94A bearing the same name as the passport and containing an endorsement of the alien’s nonimmigrant status, as long as the endorsement has not yet expired and the proposed employment is not in conflict with any restrictions or limitations identified on the form.
