identity card
Proves who you
An identity card is an official document, typically a small laminated card, that verifies who someone is.
Identity cards display information like name, photograph, and identification number.
Some countries require citizens to carry national identity cards; elsewhere, driver's licenses or passports serve the same purpose.
Often shortened to ID card or simply ID.
