There is an additional benefit with the EDL, which is that you can go up to Canada and back with just the EDL, since it also is proof of citizenship. Whether that is worth an additional $7/year is debatable, but it's similar to the price of a Passport Card, which is equivalent.

- Rimintil 4y agoIt’s more expensive than a Passport book or card. EDLs are only good for 5 years. US Passport is good for 10. WA EDL in 2024 will be $115. A US Passport Book is $130; a card is much cheaper.

That’s really the price we should be comparing, because realistically people will have a drivers license or state ID that they would have had to renew. That’s also true for passports, but far more people have and use drivers licenses day to day.
