Are you coming to Fort Benning to visit a soldier? Here is some information you need to know about getting an access pass.
-To request an access pass, go to one of the Visitor Control Centers at Interstate 185, Contractor Visitor Control Center on 8th Division Rd. in Harmony Church, or Gate 5 Bldg. 57 on Martin Rd.
-Bring a government issued photo ID such as a driver’s license or passport and social security card for all members of your party 18 and over who will be in the car unescorted by a DoD ID card holder.
-By requesting an access pass, you agree to a background check using the National Crime Information Center Interstate Identification Index (NCIC-III), a Federal Bureau of Investigation database.
-If your fax does not go through, your phone line may not be digital. You can try calling the Visitor Control Centers on a digital line or use a professional fax service such as an office supply store.
-You will not receive your visitor’s pass via email. You must pick it up at the Visitor Control Centers or the special event gate for your event.
– Keep in mind that all individuals 18 and older in the vehicle are required to have a background check and pass before being allowed unescorted access to the installation.
