I want my Google local guide t-shirt or any mark form google so i proof that I'm local guide
Hi @Iam_abhishek0 this is a frequently asked question. The standard answer is that Google will never provide some ID or special branding to show up as Local Guide.
But you are free to show your contributor tab on Google Maps to people/business owners to prove you are a volunteer Local Guide 🙂
Happy mapping!

as per this post: T-Shirt "
Local Guides t-shirts were given to Level 4+ Local Guides who reached Level 4+ by a certain date in 2015 and they lived in markets where it was possible to ship. That was a one time thank you gift.
As for the other kinds of shirt: Local Guides team members also have Local Guides t-shirts but those were created by us and for Googlers. Some Local Guides in the United States were also able to buy t-shirts from the Google Merchandise store as they were available, but no Local Guides items are currently available for purchase. There are no publicly-available t-shirts being given to Local Guides but hopefully they return to the global Google Merchandise store in the future. 🙂
Regarding the main subject of your post, you can find the Official reply in this thread, in which I am merging also your two posts. Here an excerpt:
"We do not provide Local Guides with ID cards. If asked for identification, we encourage you to share that you are an individual member of the local community (and not an employee of Google) sharing your experiences and local community on Google Maps for others to discover. You are welcome to show them your profile in "Your contributions" in the Google Maps app if they wish to learn more or share the website, g.co/localguides, with those asking questions"

Hi @Nijilrk A Warm Welcome in Connect, the Official Community of Google Local Guides.
Google thought a lot about it. Here is the official reply, in which I am merging your post:
"We do not provide Local Guides with ID cards.

As this seems to be one of your first post in here, I take the opportunity to give you some information to know how to interact with the community:
As an extra tips, i would suggest you to Search the community before posting as the same subject can be already being discussed.
Welcome again, I hope to see you soon 🙂

Please have a look at the solution here but in short, Google will not be providing any identity cards.
I'll be merging your thread with that thread as well to keep the boards clean. Thanks!
