Why do condos make a fuss about digital IDs?

Why does the front desk at my condo have a problem every time my visitors show a digital ID?
What can I do if the front desk turns away a visitor who came from far away and shows a digital ID?

ID as collateral

Not sure about your condo specifically, but mine takes the ID as a kind of collateral for the visitor pass, just in case there's a problem while they're here. Maybe you could talk to the admin/building board about a process where they take a copy of the digital ID and hold something else, like a bank card, as collateral (though I wouldn't want to do that myself)

It's just for show. People can fake IDs. I don't see the point of this BS. If you walk in like you live there, nobody stops you at these condos. It's just a hassle and an invasion of privacy.

Walk them in

I just meet them outside the complex and walk them in with me. I'm nice to the guards and desk staff, and they've never asked me anything.

A lot of people don't have a physical national ID card, and it can take years to get one. But most probably have a Postal ID. You could also have it printed and laminated at a print shop. Or you could challenge the guard and ask how he can reject a government-issued national online ID. Make him explain how he can reject an official government digital document. Then ask for the OIC, the officer in charge.

The sign-in book

The bigger problem is the 'sign-in' book, where girls can see if you've had multiple female visitors. 😕 Not a big deal unless each of them believes she's your partner. 😄
