3 Signs a Texas ID is Fake (The “Tactile” Method)
Texas licenses are some of the most secure in the country, but minors still try their luck. Here is what to look for:
-
Feel for the “Sandpaper” (Tactile Text): Real Texas IDs use laser-engraved “Tactile Text.” If you run your thumb over the birthdate and the signature, it should feel rough, almost like fine sandpaper or raised lettering. Most fake IDs are printed on flat, smooth plastic. If it feels slick, it’s a fake.
-
The “Texas State Seal” UV Check: If you have a UV light, a real Texas ID will glow with the Texas State Seal and three stars in blue, silver, and gold. If the light reveals a blank card or a generic “HIDDEN” logo, it’s a counterfeit.
-
The “Under 21” Vertical Orientation: In Texas, all licenses for those under 21 are printed vertically. If a “22-year-old” hands you a vertical ID, check the date carefully. If they are using a horizontal ID but the math says they are 19, the card has been tampered with.
