What forms of identification are acceptable to prove that someone is twenty-one years of age or older, so that person may be served, delivered, or allowed to possess or purchase alcoholic beverages?

If a licensee is charged with permitting the service, delivery, or possession of alcoholic beverages by a person under 21 years of age, under current state law, a licensee has a defense only if the licensee can affirmatively prove that prior to permitting the service, delivery or possession of alcoholic beverages by a person, the licensee requested, was shown, examined and reasonably relied on either:

• A valid Massachusetts driver license.
• A valid Massachusetts Liquor Identification card.
• A valid Passport issued by the United States Government, or by the government, recognized by the United States government, of a foreign country.
• A valid United States issued active duty Military Identification Card.
