Tribe to Produce New Enhanced Tribal Card to Meet the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative "WHTI"

The goal of the "WHTI" is to strengthen U.S. Border security while facilitating entry for U.S. Citizens by providing standard-ized documentation that enables the Department of Homeland Security to quickly and reliably identify a traveler. The Pascua Yaqui Tribe will participate and enter into a memorandum of agreement with the Department of Homeland Security and Cus-tom Border Protection to produce an Enhanced Tribal Card that will show a tribal member’s U.S. citizenship, identity, and state residence.

Currently: U.S. Citizens need to present either a passport or passport card or a "WHTI" compliant document or government issued photo ID, such as a driver’s license, along with proof of citizenship, such as a birth certificate.
