Visitor ID Card Generator
Create a temporary visitor pass for school, college, coaching, hostel, or office entry with purpose and validity printed clearly.
Visitor ID Card / Visitor Pass at true CR80 size
Built for the physical card, not only the browser preview
This generator prints at the ISO/IEC 7810 ID-1 card size, also called CR80: 3.375 × 2.125 inches (85.6 × 54 mm). That is the size used by PVC card printers, lanyard cardholders, and standard ID-card pouches, so the Save-as-PDF output is meant for real production instead of being a scaled screenshot.
Visitor passes are operational security documents: the pass number, purpose, host, and expiry must be readable at a glance by security and reception staff. The form keeps the required details visible on the face of the card and leaves optional emergency or validity details off when they are not supplied.
What must be checked before printing
For visitor passes, match the pass number with the physical or digital visitor register and keep the date/time validity narrow. Check spelling against the admission register, employee record, visitor register, or exam list before printing because card errors usually become operational problems at the gate, classroom, library, or examination room.
For durable cards, export from the print dialog as PDF and print on PVC through a card printer. For small batches, print on thick photo paper, cut to the card boundary, and laminate. The sizing remains the same in both workflows.
Format source
Uses ISO/IEC 7810 ID-1 (CR80) card dimensions and visitor-register practice: visitor name, purpose, pass number, host/person to meet, contact, and limited date/time validity.
Frequently asked questions
What should a visitor pass include?
Institution name, visitor name, photo if captured, purpose, pass number, person to meet, contact, issue/valid time, and security desk or reception signature line.
Should visitor ID cards have long validity?
No. Visitor passes should normally be valid only for the visit window or the same day, because they are temporary access documents.
Can this be used for parents visiting a school?
Yes. Use Parent Meeting, Fee Office Visit, Admission Enquiry, or Event Visitor as the purpose and add the person or office to meet.
Does this replace the visitor register?
No. The pass should match a visitor-register entry. The register is the audit record; the pass is what the visitor carries while inside.
