Penalties for a Fake ID in Indiana

Posted By Arnold Terrill Anzini, P.C. || 26-Apr-2017

Indiana has harsh penalties for underage drinking. While many individuals might think that they can circumvent the law by obtaining a fake ID, that will only make matters worse. A false ID is considered any type of identification that was forged or altered in order to establish a false identity. Whether you steal another person’s real ID and try to use it as your own or whether you make a fraudulent ID altogether, you are liable to be penalized.

Penalties for Fake IDs and False Statements of Age

As a minor, if you lie about your age and even go on to present false evidence that you are not a minor, you could be prosecuted and penalized. It’s also worth noting that it is illegal to possess a fake ID and intend to use it, even if you haven’t used it yet.

You might be penalized with the following, and more:

  • A fine of up to $500
  • License suspension for up to 1 year

These penalties, especially license suspension, can greatly interfere with employment, education, and various social and family activities.
