Government IDs and Licenses
Government IDs and licenses, or items that claim to be, or that look similar to, government identification documents are not permitted on eBay.
Violations of this policy may result in a range of actions, including:
Limits on account privileges
Forfeit of eBay fees on cancelled listings
Loss of PowerSeller status
The following items may not be listed on eBay:
Items that claim to be, or look similar to, official government identification documents or licenses, such as birth certificates, drivers licenses or passports. Completed applications for such documents containing personal information may also not be listed.
Current vehicle license plates, or plates that claim to resemble such licenses. Collectible vehicle license plates, that is, plates that are expired or no longer valid for use on a vehicle, may be listed.
Compliance plates for vehicles (including marine) or aircraft.
Any item that is primarily used to alter identification documents, licenses or plates.
Fake identification cards, or any items that are designed for the manufacturer of such cards.
Why does eBay have this policy?
eBay urges its sellers and buyers to comply with all governmental laws and regulations. Since the sale of many government IDs and licenses are prohibited by law, regulated, or may cause harm to eBay or its members, sellers may not list them on eBay.
