Expired Passport? Here's How It Affects Your Delivery
An expired passport is not valid for cannabis delivery. New York law requires a current government-issued ID showing you are 21 or older. Here's what that means for you:
| ID Type | Valid for Delivery? | What to Do |
|---|---|---|
| Valid passport (unexpired) | Yes | Use it as your ID for delivery. |
| Expired passport | No | Use another valid ID like a driver's license or state ID. |
| Expired passport + other ID | Yes, if other ID is valid | Present the valid ID at delivery. |
| Foreign passport (valid) | Yes | Accepted for out-of-state visitors. |
If your passport is expired, you cannot use it. You'll need a valid alternative. For more on ID rules, see expired ID rules in NY.
