Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC) Permit Practice Exam

Novelty IDs are not an acceptable form of identification when selling alcohol because they are typically designed for entertainment purposes and do not serve as legitimate proof of age or identity. These IDs may resemble real forms of identification but often do not contain the official security features or verifiable information that can confirm someone's age or identity. Regulatory agencies, including those governing Alcoholic Beverage Control, require valid government-issued IDs that can accurately verify an individual's age to ensure compliance with legal drinking age laws.

In contrast, US military IDs, state IDs, and passports are all government-issued forms of identification that are universally recognized and can be trusted to provide accurate personal information, making them suitable for the sale of alcohol.
