>In US for something similar you can look at ICAO passports and Enhanced driver's license,

I'm not sure what you mean be "Enhanced driver's license", but my RealId driver's license doesn't seem to have a chip in it, just an excess of holographic overlays.




Enhanced driver's licenses are different: they have a chip, and right now they are only available in 4 states near the Canadian border.

Only 4 states at Canadian Border issue them, & they are acceptable by CBP at airports or borders if you are coming from Mexico or Canada. Only citizens can get them.

Real IDs are only for Domestic Travel, from May 2023. Is available to anybody with a legal status.
