The Australia Post Keypass identity card is a photo identity card issued by Australia Post and can be used by people who do not have an Australian drivers licence or identity photo card, or for those who would prefer not to carry around a passport to prove their identity for safety and/or wear/tear reasons. It can additionally be used in a situation in which multiple proofs of ID are required, such as when opening a bank account. [1] There are two types, Under 18 and 18+.
Australia Post claims that the card can be used as proof of identity in all states. It is a legitimate form of ID and is technically acceptable as proof of ID when entering licensed (alcohol-serving) venues or buying from packaged liquor stores and tobacco vendors. One key advantage of Keypass, unlike most identity photo cards and drivers licences, is the card can be issued to people under the age of 18, and to visitors to Australia.
Digital Keypass 18+ is also available on a smart phone through Australia Post Digital iD.[2]
The cost of the Australia Post Keypass ID Card is as follows:
Regular price: $39.95
Concession: $29.95 (eligible government concession cards must be cited)
NT Resident: $25.00
