State mobile-ID overview

What first-party sources establish for Louisiana.

Louisiana has a state digital-license surface, but this review did not establish an ISO mdoc wallet program. Neither current provider list establishes wallet availability for Louisiana, and Laurel does not claim production support.

The issuing authority publishes an official mobile-ID program page. That page can establish a public program claim; it cannot independently make issuer material trusted by Laurel.

Required next action

Monitor first-party issuer and wallet sources. Merchants can prepare policy, hardware, training, and a physical-ID fallback without representing the jurisdiction as supported.

Next source review due October 5, 2026 .

Jurisdiction review record

The evidence record reviewed for Louisiana.

This record identifies the authority, exact first-party source, program finding, provider-list result, predicate evidence, and trust gate used for this page.

Louisiana Office of Motor Vehicles is the issuing authority recorded for Louisiana (US-LA, State). The exact first-party authority source retained for this review is https://www.expresslane.la.gov/; it was reviewed on 2026-09-13.
The issuer-specific source reviewed for this record is “Louisiana digital license information,” published by Louisiana Office of Motor Vehicles. The registry classifies the program as Ambiguous.
Apple Wallet is planned for this record. The controlling source is “ID in Wallet,” reviewed 2026-09-13.
Google Wallet is planned for this record. The controlling source is “Add your US Driver's License or State ID,” reviewed 2026-09-13.
No jurisdiction-specific Laurel evidence for age_over_21 is recorded; provider protocol capability is not treated as issuer proof. Issuer trust is not established in the public record and remains a separate authoritative-certificate review gate.

Privacy-preserving age verification

Ask the credential for an answer, not an identity.

LaurelID uses the ISO mdoc request for org.iso.18013.5.1.mDL, namespace org.iso.18013.5.1, element age_over_21, with intentToRetain=false. If the required predicate is unavailable, the result is Unable to verify. The verifier does not request date of birth as a fallback.

The platform receives an allowlisted outcome and operational metadata. It does not retain a patron’s name, date of birth, address, portrait, document number, wallet identifier, mobile-ID payload, session transcript, or repeat-visitor identifier.

Requested Retained

age_over_21 false

name / birth date never requested

portrait / document number never requested

identity linkage never created

Merchant and venue preparation

What a Louisiana operator can do now.

Monitor Louisiana Office of Motor Vehicles and the wallet providers for a current issuance notice; avoid promising a launch date.
Bookmark the reviewed Louisiana mobile-ID program page and record any issuer or enrollment change before scheduling a qualification session.
Keep a documented physical-ID fallback and train staff that “Unable to verify” is not an age decision.
Prepare a managed Android verifier profile with NFC, Bluetooth Low Energy, secure device management, and a tested offline operating procedure.
Review the age-check workflow with privacy and security stakeholders: Laurel requests only age_over_21, sets intentToRetain=false, and does not retain patron identity.

Keep the fallback visible: Acceptance requirements depend on applicable law, merchant policy, and the issuing authority. Laurel’s technical compatibility status is not a legal determination.

Qualification participation

Help qualify Louisiana without claiming support early.

Eligible credential holders, merchants, hardware partners, and resellers can volunteer for a controlled test. Qualification mode is marked “NOT FOR COMMERCE,” requires an operator-selected jurisdiction and wallet, and creates a separate privacy-safe qualification event. A successful test never promotes a wallet automatically.

Contact details submitted here are stored separately from verification telemetry and cannot be linked to a presentation event.

Frequently asked questions

Louisiana mobile-ID questions.

Is a mobile ID from Louisiana available in Apple Wallet?

The reviewed current Apple source does not establish Apple Wallet availability for Louisiana. Absence from that list is treated as unknown, not proof that availability is impossible.

Is a mobile ID from Louisiana available in Google Wallet?

The reviewed current Google source does not establish Google Wallet availability for Louisiana. Absence from that list is treated as unknown, not explicit unavailability.

Does LaurelID support production age verification for Louisiana?

No. Louisiana has not passed every Laurel production gate. A page in this directory, wallet availability, or an issuer announcement does not independently create production support.

What information does LaurelID request from a mobile ID issued by Louisiana?

The verifier requests only the ISO mdoc age_over_21 predicate and sets intentToRetain=false. It does not fall back to requesting a date of birth, name, address, portrait, or document number.
