You know that moment when you’re halfway through booking a flight, checking into your hotel, or filling out some travel form, and you’re digging through your email, your wallet, your notes—trying to find your passport number or driver’s license or Known Traveler Number? It’s frustrating, it’s time-consuming, and honestly, it’s the kind of thing that makes you want to just close the browser and do it later.

Google is trying to fix that, and the solution is pretty straightforward: Chrome can now automatically fill forms using data directly from your Google Wallet. This isn’t just about payment methods or addresses anymore. Starting June 23, 2026, Chrome rolled out deeper integration with Google Wallet across both mobile and desktop, bringing support for passport details, driver’s license information, Known Traveler Numbers, and more.

The update extends Chrome’s advanced autofill capabilities to iOS and Android users for the first time. Before this, the feature was only available on desktop. Now you can autofill complex information like flight details, license plates, and vehicle identification numbers on both iPhone and Android devices, just like you could on your computer.

Your browser does not support the video tag.

But the bigger story is the Google Wallet integration. Chrome can now pull sensitive data directly from your Wallet to complete forms faster. This includes:

  • Driver’s license details
  • Passport information
  • Known Traveler Number (KTN)
  • Payment information

If you don’t have these details stored in your Wallet yet, Chrome will prompt you to save them there when you enter the information for the first time. So the browser actually helps you build your Wallet profile as you use it.

Google says Chrome will only save or fill your information with your explicit permission. Everything stays encrypted, and you can manage or update your stored data through Google Wallet settings or the Autofill and passwords page in Chrome settings.

Why this matters for regular people

Let’s be real: form-filling is tedious. It’s one of those digital annoyances we all just accept as part of online life. But when you’re traveling, it gets even worse. You’re trying to check in for a flight, and you need your passport number. You’re renting a car, and they want your driver’s license. You’re booking a hotel, and suddenly you need your KTN for airport security.

This update makes those moments significantly smoother. Chrome can now handle tricky details like your passport, driver’s license, or flight info automatically. You’re not digging through emails anymore. You’re not remembering where you saved that document. The information is right there, encrypted, and fills in when you give it permission.

The feature also supports more complex data types beyond just ID documents. You can automatically fill flight details, vehicle information, license plate numbers, and VINs. This means things like parking payments, flight check-ins, or insurance quotes become quicker because Chrome recognizes what the form needs and pulls the right information from your Wallet.

The security side

I’m a tech journalist, so I always ask about security when companies talk about storing sensitive personal data. Google’s approach here is pretty standard for this kind of feature, but it’s worth understanding.

Chrome keeps your information encrypted. The browser only fills data with your explicit permission—you’re not losing control here. Sensitive data like passport numbers and driver’s license details stays secure while you save time. You can manage what’s stored through Google Wallet settings, and you can update or delete information whenever you want.

This is similar to how payment autofill works, but now applied to identification documents. The key difference is that IDs and passports are more sensitive than credit card numbers, so the permission model is important. Google isn’t just auto-filling everything behind your back.

How it works in practice

The rollout started on June 23, 2026, through a server-side update, so you don’t need to download anything special. If you’re not seeing the feature yet, just make sure Chrome on iOS or Android is fully updated to the latest version.

When you’re filling out a form that asks for travel details or vehicle information, Chrome will recognize what it needs. If you have that information in your Wallet, it’ll suggest it automatically. If you don’t have it stored yet, Chrome will offer to save it to your Wallet when you enter it manually.

On desktop, the integration is already available, and now mobile users get the same experience. The two-line layout for autofill suggestions on Android that Google introduced in December 2025 makes it clearer which option to pick, so you’re not accidentally selecting the wrong address or payment method.

This isn’t Google’s first time improving autofill. In December 2024, they added support for loyalty card numbers and travel details. In December 2025, they rolled out improved address recognition worldwide and a better autofill suggestion box on Android. Now, in June 2026, they’re taking it further by integrating directly with the most sensitive personal data you have.

The trend is clear: Google wants Chrome to be the place where you handle all your online identity stuff, not just payments. They’re building a system where your browser knows who you are, what you travel with, what car you drive, and how to pay for things—and it uses that knowledge to make form-filling invisible.

For users, this is convenient. For Google, it’s also strategic. The more data you store in Google Wallet and the more you rely on Chrome autofill, the more integrated you become with Google’s ecosystem. That’s not necessarily bad, but it’s worth understanding when you’re deciding whether to trust your passport and driver’s license to a browser feature.

If you travel frequently, use your driver’s license for verification, or just hate filling out the same forms repeatedly, this update is genuinely useful. The ability to autofill passport details and KTN numbers means you’re not scrambling for documents during travel check-ins anymore.

The feature is rolling out to Android and iPhone users now, with desktop users getting it earlier. Make sure your Chrome app is updated, and you’ll start seeing the suggestions when forms ask for travel or vehicle information.

You don’t have to use it if you’re not comfortable. The permission model is there for that reason. But if you do use it, you’re saving time on some of the most frustrating digital tasks out there.

Chrome’s autofill feature has been around for years, but it’s mostly been about addresses and payment methods. This update changes that fundamentally. By bringing passport details, driver’s licenses, and Known Traveler Numbers into the autofill ecosystem, Google is making Chrome more useful for real-life situations where you need identity information quickly.

The iOS and Android expansion means mobile users finally get the same convenience that desktop users have had. The Google Wallet integration means your browser and your digital wallet work together instead of as separate tools. And the permission-based encryption model means you’re not losing control over your sensitive data.

It’s a solid improvement to a feature that most people already use but rarely think about. And when you’re traveling, that kind of invisible convenience is worth its weight in gold.
