I'm coming up to 18 and wondering what i can use for proof of age?

Question

I don't mind paying for it, i just don't want to take my passport or driving licence, as to much trouble if i loose it. Any help will be great, thanks.

Answer 1

state issued ID, obtained at local DMV

Answer 2

If you're registered to vote, a voter registration card might help. As stated, a lot of places only accept a photo, government issued ID. If you lose the license card, but not the privilege to drive, you can likely go to your DMV and get a duplicate for a fee of no more that $10

Answer 3

an i.d.

Answer 4

You should be able to go to the place where you get your driver's license renewed and get a photo id.

Answer 5

Apply for a student card or rail card!  

Answer 6

go to the DMV and for about $10-18, get an ID ONLY card..least you can here in GA.

Answer 8

School ID

Answer 9

Given that I'm viewing this on Yahoo UK and Ireland, I'll keep my info relevant to this country.

Most places will only accept ID they class as "official" such as a passport or driving licence. They usually won't accept things like a birth certificate because it has no photo and nothing to identify that the person named is you.

I always used to take my photocard part of my driving licence out with me as proof just in case but never needed it when I was 18... only when I was 26 buying a bottle of red wine to put in a casserole...

Answer 10

Get a photo id.

Birth Certificate.

My guess is that you're trying to get into some place where you shouldn't be and don't want to use photo id? Good luck lol.

Answer 11

Shouldn't you have an id?

Answer 12

You have no other choices, unless you are in the military, you can use your military ID.  Otherwise, your passport and DL (or I.D.) are your only choices.

Answer 13

Get an ID card (or Drivers license) issued by your local motor vehicle company.

Answer 14

You should carry your State ID or Driver license with you. They are very easy to replace if it does get lost.  

Answer 15

birth certificate

or state ID

Answer 16

Take your mum or dad with you.

Answer 17

a school id will usely work

Answer 18

Hi,  let me join in your group.

Answer 19

Most places will only accept a photo ID issued by a government agency. Passport, military ID, drivers license, or state issued photo ID. You should be able to get a picture ID the same place you get your drivers license. It will look similar, but will be marked "Identification Card Only".

Answer 20

get a state issued identification.  

Answer 21

You can get a state id, usually at the same place you get you drivers license.

Answer 22

Depends on your jurisidiction. Some places have age of majority cards, ontario has a BYID which is usable for purchase of alcohol and entry to age restricted alcohol establishments.

Answer 23

Your state probably has an identification card that they will issue, this is usually done by the same people who issue drivers licenses.
