To be admitted to the test center, candidates must present an acceptable form of picture identification that includes both a photograph and a signature. The only acceptable forms of identification are:
  • A valid driver's license or an official photo ID issued by the government of the state or province where the candidate resides. ID's from membership organizations are not permissible for admission to any National Board test.
  • A valid passport.
  • A valid student identification card from an accredited school or college of optometry, provided this ID card includes both a photograph and a signature.

During admission to the test center, candidates will be required to sign the roster adjacent to their name as further proof of identification. This signature becomes evidence for any future challenge regarding the identity of the test taker.

During the test, candidates will be required to leave their identification card in front of them on the desk for periodic proctor inspection.
