Depends how you intend to travel. If it's by car or train, then no. But if you're flying, you'll need some form of ID. Nothing to do with border controls (there aren't any between England and Scotland) but simply to do with aviation security. The precise nature of the acceptable ID depends entirely on the airline, so check the web site of the airline you're flying with. Get it wrong and you won't be allowed to fly, so check VERY carefully. |

You don't need a passport to travel from England to Scotland, no immigration officers at the Borders!
However, if you are flying you will need a valid ID or passport, check the airline's website to see what they accept. |

If you are flying you will need some form of ID for security. I think Easyjet ask for a passport. But that is stop people blowing up aircraft.
As the journey is within the same country why would you need a passport? No border = no problem, by land sea or road.

Any form of ID would suffice, for example a driving licence. It would have to have your picture on it though. |

Yes you will need a Scottish passport and you will have to stay in quarantine for six weeks when you land. |

if you're flying then yes you'll need photo ID that the airline will accept, which usually means your passport ... it's not that you need it for immigration purposes but for security reasons |

Scottish passports will not be introduced until after the Referendum
( joke ) but most airlines including EasyJet require photographic identity - could be driving licence or a passport . Check with airline . |

Most airlines ask for passports. If you travel by road or rail you will not need any ID. Enjoy Scotland . |

It depends how you're travelling. There's no border control between England and Scotland, so if you're travelling by car, train or bus then no, you don't need ID.
If you're flying, on the other hand, then you'll need ID for most airlines. It's their way of checking your identity. If you are flying, check on the airline's website... it should state what ID is required for domestic flights (normally a driving licence is fine) |

I flew from Bristol to Glasgow a couple of months ago and all I needed was photo ID. I dont even have a passport. They need confirmation of who you are to make sure the correct person is boarding the plane but to be honest they werent that hot on it. Just make sure you have your driving licence on you or something and you will be fine. |

No you do not need anything like that.
Where on earth did you get that idea from? Or who told you that? |

Gatwick, eh? That means you're flying! Why on Earth do you wish to fly when it's *FAR* cheaper - and pretty much carbon neutral - to take the train?
The only airline of which I'm aware that flies from Gatwick to Edinburgh is EasyJet. You could end up paying between £150 and £260 return, depending on when you fly.
A return train ticket is around £102 (or £68 if you have a railcard).
Domestic flights should be banned - or at least the tickets made so expensive that people would think twice about taking them.
Use your brain and take the train! |

Sea Eff is correct. You will need some form of official ID at the check-in desk. Most people use their passports, but a photographic ID, such as driving license, will do. Have a great time in my fabulous country!!! |

You live in England, and want to travel to Scotland?
The UK is not just England, you know,
The UK is England, Scotland, Wales & Northern Ireland altogether,
No you don't need a Passport to travel all over the UK, |

Officially you don't need a passport for travel between Great Britain and Ireland, Northern Ireland and the Channel Islands. However most airlines ask that you bring either a passport or some form of acceptable photographic identification when travelling between the UK and the Republic of Ireland. |

I know the Scots are sometimes a bit of a different breed to the English, but you don't need i.d or passport to enter their beautiful country. |

You need some form of Photographic ID, but I believe it needs to be some form of 'Governmental' ID such as a passport or a photo type driving licence etc...... I don't think an ID for the local rave bar will be accepted. |
