Expiring Visitor Name Tags

Expiring Visitor Name Tags

Expiring visitor name tags are innovative, time-sensitive labels designed to enhance security by visually indicating when a visitor’s access has expired. These badges change color, display a clear “STOP” message, or exhibit other visual cues after a set period, typically after 24 hours. This ensures that expired badges are easily identifiable to reduce the risk of unauthorized access.

Option 1:
Tab Self-Expiring Badges

How does it work?

When printed, this visitor badge includes a tab on the side labeled “FOLD UNDER.” To activate the expiration process, visitors can simply fold the tab as instructed. Over 24 hours, the tab will gradually change color and display a clear “VOID” warning on the folded side of the badge surface.

Ideal for

Self Check-In Visitor Kiosks

Printer compatibility

Dymo 450, Brother QL-810W, Brother QL-810W, or other Thermal or Inkjet Printers

Option 2:
Full Expiring Badges

How does it work?

Once the visitor label has been printed, staff can directly apply it on top of the “VOID” base sticker. Overtime, the “VOID” sticker activates, bleeding through the visitor label and marking the entire surface with a clear expiration cue.

Attended or Hybrid Visitor Check-In Stations

Option 3:
Dot Expiring Labels

How does it work?

Staff manually applies a “VOID” sticker to the corner of a standard visitor badge, then layer a blank sticker on top to conceal it. Over time, the “VOID” sticker will bleed through the blank sticker, providing a clear and visible expiration indicator once the badge has expired.
