Need ID to buy iPhone?

[sananda]

when you buy an iphone from an apple store, do you need to provide any id? and do they sell to foreigners?

thanks.

I assume if your paying with cash you wouldn't need any id at all. But usually the stores ask for some form of ID when you are paying with a credit card.

But as far as I know they sell to foreigners. Refusing to sell would get into too many questions (like whether they're a resident, visa, blah blah blah) and besides, Apple will never turn down your money.

And even if they ask for the id while using a credit card its because they want to check that its your credit card and not a stolen one. I am sure they aren't checking your id to see your nationality.
