Please print out on any weight of paper you wish, trim to wallet-size and laminate if desired. The blue color is important, as it is a “flash-card” developed by the TSA so their own officers will  \nrecognize it and be guided to treat the traveler with discretion and sensitivity.  \nJUST PRINT IN COLOR, CUT OUT, FOLD, AND PUT WITH TRAVEL DOCUMENTS  \nFOLD LINE  \nTSA NOTIFICATION CARD: INDIVIDUALS WITH DISABILITIES AND MEDICAL CONDITIONS  \nI have the following health condition, disability or medical device that may affect my screening:  \nI understand that alternate procedures providing an equivalent level of security screening are available and can be done in private.
