Can police demand identification?
In some situations you are required to provide your name and address and provide identification. If the police lawfully require you to provide photographic identification they also have the power to ask you to remove any face covering to allow the police officer to see your face. They must ask for your permission first and conduct the viewing in a way that provides reasonable privacy as quickly as possible. If you do not remove your face covering without special justification you may be committing an offence. More information is available in the below section on questioning.
