Local ID cards

If you’re assigned to certain areas of the world, you may also receive a second, local ID card – either to enhance your experience in your work country or for compliance reasons. The local ID card should be shown at your doctor’s office when seeking care at a direct pay provider when in that region. Use your Global ID card for any services outside of that region, like your home country or if you’re traveling.

The following areas may receive a second ID card. Ask Customer Service for more information if you are in one of these areas and haven’t received a local ID card yet.
