The official MOD90 ID Card Holder “MOD90” Identity card holder for holding your Armed Forces Identity card aka MOD90 or MOD form 90, the official ID card of soldiers of the Royal Navy, Royal Air Force or British Army, this wallet is specifically designed for those serving in the SAS also known as the Special Air Service Service.

The Special Air Service (SAS) is a special forces unit of the British Army. It was founded as a regiment in 1941 by David Stirling and in 1950, it was reconstituted as a corps.[5] The unit specialises in a number of roles including counter-terrorism, hostage rescue, direct action and covert reconnaissance. Much of the information about the SAS is highly classified, and the unit is not commented on by either the British government or the Ministry of Defence due to the secrecy and sensitivity of its operations.

The corps currently consists of the 22 Special Air Service Regiment, the regular component, as well as the 21 Special Air Service Regiment (Artists) (Reserve) and the 23 Special Air Service Regiment (Reserve), which are reserve units, all under the operational command of United Kingdom Special Forces (UKSF). Its sister unit is the Royal Navy’s Special Boat Service which specialises in maritime counter-terrorism. Both units are under the operational control of the Director Special Forces.

The Special Air Service traces its origins to 1941 and the Second World War. It was reformed as part of the Territorial Army in 1947, named the 21st Special Air Service Regiment (Artists Rifles). The 22nd Special Air Service Regiment, which is part of the regular army, gained fame and recognition worldwide after its televised rescue of all but two of the hostages held during the 1980 Iranian Embassy siege.

It is recommended to keep your MOD90 Identity Card seperate from your other personal documents as loss or theft has to usually be reported as soon as possible,

It should also be noted now that MOD90’s can be retained by ex-services personnel on leaving the service, they are to be cut at the corner where the date of expiry where is so they cannot be used to enter MOD establishments, but are rather there to retain a link to the service and also for forces benefits alongside the DDS card which does the same thing, although they are not replaceable.

Since the Home Office revised the existing guidelines years ago MOD90 is now a permitted proof of age since the date of birth is printed on the ID itself and door staff should be aware of this.
