DON’T FAKE THE ID CHECKING: The challenge of checking ID’s properly |
|
| “May I see your ID please?” is the first question every liquor license establishment
should require of their staff. Twenty-one is the legal age to purchase alcohol in every
state in the U.S. While there are debates going on currently regarding lowering the
drinking age, the legal age remains twenty-one to purchase alcohol.
A person must show a valid ID to purchase alcohol. As a threshold matter, a valid ID is a
non-expired ID. Valid IDs to purchase alcohol are issued by the state or federal
government. These include drivers licenses, passports, green cards, state issued ID’s
military ID and possibly gun permits. The liquor licensee should check with their state
for the specific IDs allowable to purchase alcohol. |
