What type of identification is acceptable to verify a guest's age?

A government-issued ID is the most reliable type of identification to verify a guest's age. This category includes documents such as a driver's license, state identification card, or passport, which not only confirm a person's identity but also provide a legal guarantee of their age, as these documents are issued by state or federal authorities with strict verification processes.

Other forms of identification like school IDs, credit cards, and birth certificates do not offer the same level of assurance regarding age verification as government-issued IDs. School IDs may lack sufficient age information and are not universally recognized as valid proof of age. Credit cards are not age-specific documents, and while they can verify identity to some extent, they are not definitive proof of age. Birth certificates provide evidence of age, but they are often not practical for use in age-restricted situations, such as entering a venue where age verification is required at the time of entry.
