ID scanning in licensed venues
Licensees in safe night precincts (SNPs) who trade past midnight on a permanent basis must operate an approved ID scanner at each entry to their licensed premises (unless exempt).

- which liquor licence classes are exempt
- whose ID to scan and when to do it
- who is allowed to scan ID
- acceptable forms of ID
- personal information and privacy obligations
- how to deal with privacy complaints

- what to do if the ID scanning system malfunctions
- setting up your networked ID scanner with an approved operator
