The current field experiment investigated if and howLatinos versusAnglos experience biased treatment in a setting where documentation is relevant. In an audit experiment, Latino customers were treated differently than a matched team ofAnglo customers when making $10 check payments at retail stores. Specifically,Latinos were asked to present an identification card (ID) more frequently thanAnglo customers, were quoted a higher minimum‐dollar amount for purchasing a gift certificate, and received more negative affect from salespersons. Among those who were asked for identification, a municipal‐issuedIDcard was declined at equal rates fromLatinos andAnglos, while an unofficialIDcard was declined more fromAnglos thanLatinos. The association of Latino identity with foreignness and undocumented immigration, and the potential of municipal‐IDcard programs to serve undocumented immigrants are discussed
