Why would you even chance listening to anyone online, I know we are some really great people with outstanding ideas and answers...but geeez, why wouldn't you simply contact your local US CUSTOMS Agency and ASK them ???

HOPE THIS HELPS !!!

Is there some purpose in your failure to use the shift key or punctuation ? Are you as shiftless sheriff?

Sure it is. You are part of the local (county )government.

This is scary you work for the Sheriff and have to ask an identification question.

The fact you don't know the answer causes me to doubt you have ever been a Sheriff. Non of the answers before mine show any evidence that they have a clue either. I will at least admit I don't know. Make an appointment to personally visit the nearest Passport office to obtain a replacement BEFORE you leave. If you need a government ISSUED ID, a drivers license still counts. If you need an ID as a government employee, it never did. That discrepancy is another reason I don't believe a word of your question.

It is a local govt. ID, but when people talk about govt. ID's, they are referring to those iussued to U.S. Govt. employees.

YES...you can use your police ID to get government rates at hotels and such. It is a government ID no matter if you nare local, county or federal.


Mary B
You are a County Sheriff and this is how you write? I sure feel safe now...

It is if it was issued by the government whether that government be local, stste or federal. Even your driver's license is a government ID.


Pam
yes

OK - thanks for your clarification of purpose, then the answer is no - your police officer id is not sufficient for that.


murrayc
for most purposes it is

Yes, just a local government ID. Not a Federal ID! Just an official ID in the Jurisdiction(County) in which you are employed. This does not mean professional courtesy would not be extended to you in other counties/jurisdictions. Or that your ID will not be excepted for ID in other counties/jurisdictions. Officially or unofficially, just for ID purposes only for others in your profession. Not the powers our responsibilities in which that ID imparts upon you in the official jurisdiction/county in which said ID is official/ originated from. I also do not know if one could use this as an ID for the purchase of alcohol(ID purposes), cigarettes, or to get into a night club as proof of age. I think that aspect is at the sole discretion of the vendor, store or night club owner. As it would be impossible for a store owner, vendor or night club owner to keep up with all the different counties Id's etc and so on. So to others in your profession. Yes, as more of a professional courtesy. Than law! The only official ID State wide that I am Aware of. Is your State issued Driver license or ID. That is Universally accepted that is. By the State! For the reasons you explain. I would say no. If they will not accept a state ID. What make you think they will accept a county ID. No!
Peace!!! Love!!! Happiness!!! Health!!!

nope, it's an employment ID, like a wal-mart nametag.
it may get you a discount on donuts, it's good for nothing else.
