The Administrative Service for Identification, Migration and
Aliens (SAIME) denied, through the social network Instagram, the mandatory use of
the current ID card to travel within the country.
In this regard, the institution clarified that “any Venezuelan who requires traveling by area within the country must present their Identity Card as their main personal identification document , whether it is valid or expired.”
He also indicated that “it is not allowed to present Passports, nor a copy of the ID, Driver's License or Institutional Licenses.”
The SAIME clarification is based
on the information line of different airlines, which state that, on instructions from the body
that guarantees the identity of Venezuelans, the expired ID card
would not be accepted for domestic travel.
