Mobile ID rollout and adoption in Kentucky

Kentucky offers a mobile ID through a state based application:

  • Kentucky Mobile ID

The state has also announced that it plans to begin offering Kentucky digital ID to residents through the Apple Wallet.

Where can the Kentucky mobile ID be used?

The Kentucky mDL is accepted at participating TSAs around the country, as well as participating businesses in the state.

Currently law enforcement does not accept the Kentucky Mobile ID, and local establishments may or may not be aware of how to use/process the new ID format.

How can businesses read/verify Kentucky digital IDs?

VeriScan for Windows with a Tap2ID mobile ID reader is capable of reading and verifying mobile IDs, including the Kentucky digital ID, and storing information alongside data from scanned physical IDs and passports.
