Maryland’s license features elements from the Calvert-Crossland coat of arms – the black-and-gold cross and the red-and-white Italian cross – creating a distinctive checker-like pattern. A holographic overlay carries the state flag design, and UV reveals a blue crab. Micro-printed text lines the borders, and a ghost image provides additional security. We use multi-pass printing to capture the heraldic pattern without color bleed and apply flag-themed holographic film.
Maryland’s flag-pattern hologram is the most visually distinctive among all US state IDs. Reproducing the alternating Calvert black-and-gold with Crossland red-and-white required us to source custom holographic film from a specialty manufacturer. The result accurately shifts between the two family crests at different viewing angles. Laser-engraved personal data is etched below the card surface for permanence. Our dual barcode system encodes data consistently across both the 1D and PDF417 formats.
Delivery for Maryland cards follows our two-tier system. Economy Shipping costs $20 and arrives within approximately 20 business days from the ship date. Expedited Shipping narrows that window to 10-14 business days for $50, selectable at checkout. Stealth packaging is standard on all orders – plain envelope, generic return label, no product branding. A tracking number reaches your inbox once the package is handed off to the carrier, giving you full visibility on delivery status.
For best results, upload a clear photo taken in natural daylight with a neutral background. Our in-house editing team processes every portrait individually – adjusting brightness, contrast, and skin tones to match the color profile of a Maryland DMV photo. We crop and resize to the exact pixel dimensions required by the template. If your background is not plain, our editors remove it digitally. The final portrait is color-matched to look native to the card design.
To order your Maryland card, visit our order page and enter your preferred information. Upload a clear, front-facing photo – we handle all editing and formatting. Maryland orders enter production within 24 hours of payment confirmation. Because the Maryland hologram is one of the most distinctive in our catalog, we apply additional quality controls during the lamination phase. Production averages 3-5 business days. You receive email updates throughout, including tracking when your card ships. Our support team is available at contact@idpimp.ph for any questions about your order.
Our IDs are fully scannable and pass barcode verification. Every order includes a free duplicate card produced with the same premium materials at no additional cost. You receive two identical IDs with the same security features, barcodes, and holograms. Keep one as your primary and the other as a backup in case your first card is ever lost or damaged.
