Congratulations on your selection for the assignment of choice to the Little Rock Air Force Base. Moving can be overwhelming. Below are some helpful ways to stay informed and make your transition easier and smoother.

Currently, installation entry control points are operating under normal entry and visitor procedures. At least one Department of Defense ID card will be checked per vehicle, unless after 10 p.m.

Between 10 p.m. and 5 a.m., all vehicle passengers must have Department of Defense identification or a Defense Biometric Identification System (DBIDS) identification card or pass. 

Security Forces may check any and all ID cards at any time. Personnel with authorized credentials allowing them escort privileges may escort non-ID card-holding personnel in their same vehicle between 5 a.m. and 10 p.m. 

The trusted traveler process requires the authorized individual to have knowledge of the co-traveler sufficient enough to vouch for the identity, fitness, and purpose for base access of the co-traveler(s).

Escorts are required to remain with and maintain control of their visitors at all times while on the installation. A visitor pass is required if the escorting individual is not going to remain with the visitor at all times.

Trusted Traveler Program will not be utilized for the purpose of escorting any commercial vehicle onto any LRAFB installation. All DOD-authorized sponsors will be required to have the commercial vehicle driver and any passengers who require access to the installation to be properly vetted and issued a DBIDS credential.
