Acceptable ID is an original, current document with a photograph and date of birth, such as a driver licence, passport or an approved proof-of-age or 'Keypass' card. Photocopies, expired documents or non-photo cards are not acceptable.

Secondary supply is when someone, such as an adult, buys or supplies alcohol to a person under 18. On licensed premises this is not allowed, and supplying alcohol to minors is restricted by law, with rules and penalties that vary between states and territories.
