At FTT Lending 2026, we asked the seemingly simple question, “How many valid forms of ID do you have?” the answers reveal a fascinating look at international mobility and personal documentation.
For many at FTT Lending 2026, the baseline is two, typically a passport and a driving licence, but for others, the count is significantly higher due to dual citizenship or residency in foreign countries.
Across various responses, we saw a wide range of counts. Some individuals carry as many as four distinct forms of identification. For instance, one attendee of FTT Lending noted having both an Irish passport and passport card, supplemented by a Finnish ID card and bank ID. Others manage multiple passports alongside their driver’s licences, with one person even claiming three passports in their collection.
However, the total number of IDs owned doesn’t always match what is carried daily. While many people possess two or three valid documents, it is common for individuals to only have one form of ID, such as a driving licence, on their person at any given time. Whether it is a single card or a collection of international documents, the diversity in responses highlights how individual circumstances and locations shape our portfolio of identity.
