What ID is accepted for age verification on AI art platforms?

Updated October 2026 · How we answer

Types of Accepted ID

Most adult AI art platforms that require age verification accept a current, government-issued photo ID. Common examples include a driver's license, passport, state or provincial ID card, national identity card, or military ID. The ID must be unexpired and show your full name, date of birth, and photograph. Some platforms may also accept a permanent resident card or a consular ID.

In some cases, platforms may accept alternative proof such as a credit card in your name or a utility bill combined with a selfie, but these are less common. The exact list of accepted IDs depends on the verification provider and local laws. For example, in the European Union, national ID cards are widely accepted, while in the U.S., driver's licenses and passports are standard.

• Driver's license (U.S. or international)
• Passport (any country)
• State or provincial ID card
• National identity card (e.g., EU, UK)
• Military ID
• Permanent resident card (green card)

What If You Don't Have a Standard ID?

If you don't have a driver's license or passport, you may still be able to verify using a state-issued ID card, which is available in many U.S. states for non-drivers. Some platforms also accept a combination of documents, such as a birth certificate plus a utility bill, but this is less common. Always check the platform's help center for a list of accepted documents.

Keep in mind that verification providers may reject IDs that are expired, damaged, or not in a supported language. If your ID is in a non-Latin script, some services may require a certified translation. It's best to use a clear, well-lit photo of your ID to avoid rejection.
