    Note 'age card' and 'age document'. EU nationals etc. can buy in pubs with the appropriate age document.

    Fair play for finding it I was struggling to say the least. I don't have consolidated legislation anymore, so I can see how anyone can get things mixed up.

    Edit: I think I've just made the same mistake. It's on the premises vs. actually buying?

    it is age card only for buying alcohol.


    You keep saying defense. That is for a prosecution, if a person presents a valid id as listed than a “defense” would not be required. That only becomes a factor is there is a prosecution which won’t happen if valid id as prescribed to be on the premises is presented. Alcohol merchants will accept a driver license and passport (from any country) as well as the age card.

    what am i like, quoting legislation in a legal discussion forum. At least i managed to quote the correct piece of legislation.

    And i have never said defense. the word is defence.

    Fair enough.

    I used to work in law enforcement stateside and we had a book of all ID types issued throughout the 50 states and territories. Very handy for checking out of state documents.

    Many RPU vehicles contain a similar document containing details of all EU (and countless more non EU) driving licences which also details the various things to look out for in identifying a forged one. I think there is also a passport version held in stations.

    Pity they didn't use it when following up on that Prawo Jazdy fella :)
