The Utah age verification law, known as Senate Bill 287, is a regulatory requirement mandating age-restricted service providers, such as adult-oriented content websites, to verify user age. It was passed by state lawmakers and signed by Governor Spencer Cox on 1 March 2024.
Utah also includes social media companies under this age verification law. This means users will have to verify their age before usage, as they will be blocked if they don’t provide a government-issued ID document for verification. Users under 18 will also need to seek permission or consent from parents or guardians to access social media.
