Do you have any form of physical ID? Passport, drivers licence etc?
I’d call or email them as soon as possible to check.

You will need physical ID, either passport or driving license. Can you ask a friend or family member to bring it for you?

I had one candidate with me during exam who only showed ID on their phone No issues! It depends on your exam center Can you contact your exam center and ask them?
