Do minors need to show their identity cards when they check into hotels?

I. Provisions for Minors to Stay in Hotels

According to the relevant laws and regulations of our country, minors need to abide by certain regulations when staying in hotels. Because minors lack full capacity for civil conduct, they usually need to go through the check-in formalities accompanied by guardians or legal representatives. In this process, the hotel will require minors to show their identity cards or other valid documents to verify their identity and age information.

Second, the role of ID card in the check-in process

As a legal document, ID card plays an important role in proving personal identity and age. When minors check into the hotel, showing their ID cards helps the hotel to confirm the identity and age of minors and ensure that they meet the check-in conditions. At the same time, the ID card is also an important means for hotels to manage public security and prevent minors from being illegally infringed.

Three. Responsibilities and obligations of guardians

During the period of minors staying in hotels, guardians have important responsibilities. The guardian shall ensure that minors carry valid certificates and show them when they check in. In addition, guardians should also pay attention to the safety and rights protection of minors during their stay in the hotel to avoid their being affected by adverse factors.

Four. Responsibilities and obligations of the hotel

When receiving minors, hotels should strictly abide by relevant laws and regulations to ensure that the legitimate rights and interests of minors are protected. Hotels should carefully verify the identity and age information of minors, and refuse minors who have no documents or whose documents do not match. At the same time, hotels should also strengthen internal management, improve the quality of employees and ensure a safe and comfortable accommodation environment for minors.

To sum up:

Minors need to show their identity cards or other valid certificates when they check into hotels, which is a necessary measure to abide by laws and regulations, protect the rights and interests of minors and manage social security. Guardians should perform their guardianship duties, ensure that minors carry valid certificates, and pay attention to their safety and rights protection during their stay in hotels. Hotels should strictly abide by laws and regulations, carefully verify the identity and age information of minors, and provide safe and comfortable accommodation environment for minors.
