Their military ID is their passport.
As a sidenote...Ron Garan is of Russian descent.

Rescue personnel tend to astronaut Ron Garan after his landing in Kazakhstan on Friday.  /  The Associated Press
 
Yonkers native and NASA astronaut Ron Garan is back on Earth after a more than five-month stay on the International Space Station.A Russian Soyuz capsule carrying Garan and two other returning Space Station colleagues touched down safely Friday in the central steppes of Kazakhstan — but not without rattling nerves after a breakdown in communications left the crew of the Soyuz capsule out of touch with Mission Control for several minutes.
