Date: 2025-04-26 03:30 am (UTC)Yeah, I don't carry my passport books on routine domestic travel either (which made it annoying when CLEAR required a passport for updating); options like the US and Irish passport cards, on the other hand, fit in my (admittedly bulky) wallet and are
important parts of this nutritious breakfastreasonable to include as everyday carry items.I wish the Irish card had a 10 year validity period like the US one, though; it's only valid for 5 years or the remaining validity period of the book, and renewing it at the midpoint of the book's 10 years costs twice as much as getting it with the book for those of us who live in the US (due to the loss of the "bundle discount" plus the extra postage charge). Since I mostly used it as a Schengen-area ID that let me leave my passport books locked in the hotel room safe and I've had so much less international travel since 2020, it wasn't worth renewing for €50...though I'll probably throw the extra €25 on when I renew the book next, just in case.
