Entrance Instructions

What You MUST Bring

User Entry Pass* - is provided to approved users who have scheduled visits and have completed their Site Access Training.  Approximately 7 days before your scheduled visit, you will receive an email from ORNL with an attached User Entry Pass, which you should print and bring with you.  The Pass is beneficial for expediting your entry through security onto the ORNL site and for assistance at the Visitor Center.

* If you are unable to print your User Entry Pass or forget to bring it, you can still access the ORNL site after the security staff confirms your approval for access.

Photo Identification  - U.S. citizens must bring photo identification that has been issued by the federal government, such as a passport, or by your state government, such as a current driver's license or a photo-identification card issued to non-drivers by a state's motor vehicles department.  A student photo identification card is also acceptable.

Non-US citizens must bring their valid original passport and Visa, including I-20 document, if applicable.
