Sky Marshals, being authorized security personnel, need to identify themselves as such to other security staff, airline crew, etc. The primary document for this identification is their official Identity Card issued by their parent organization (e.g., NSG or CISF, if applicable). While weapon authorization is necessary for them to carry a weapon, the security personnel at the checkpoint would primarily verify their official status via their Identity Card.
The official Identity Card is the key document checked by security personnel to confirm the status of a Sky Marshal.
