Photographic indentification required
Whenever attending a DAME or DAO for an examination or assessment which CASA requires for medical certification, applicants must take current photographic identification as evidence of their identity. A passport, driver's licence, school or university identification card, military identification card or similar document is acceptable for this purpose. A DAME or DAO may not complete a CASA medical examination or other required assessment without certifying on the examination/report form that current photographic identification of the applicant has been sighted. Forthcoming changes to relevant legislation will reflect this requirement.
In the anticipated rare cases where an applicant does not have an acceptable, current photographic identification document, the applicant or examiner should contact CASA Aviation Medicine Section to determine an alternative means of establishing the applicant's identity.
