What is your passport or national ID number?
Attendance does not need an identity number. If the venue checks identity at the door, its own check-in process should ask only for what it needs.

RSVP form for an event: ask for the answers your planning depends on
An event RSVP form asks each invitee whether they will attend and how many people are coming, so the host can plan seating, catering counts and entry. Keep the required part to a name and a yes, no or not-sure answer, and put dietary and access needs in optional fields that do not hold up the reply. Leave out personal details the event does not use, because extra questions can make a guest put off the reply.

Questions to leave out
Requests that do not belong on an RSVP
What is your home address?
Seating and catering do not depend on where a guest lives. A mailing address belongs in a separate process if you send printed material by post.
Please send a photo for the name badge.
A badge photo is a different request with its own permission and storage questions. Handle it at check-in or through a separate photo release.
After a response arrives
What happens to each reply
Replies are saved, then counted on a schedule
Each reply is stored first. A scheduled job processes new replies every hour in production, updates the counts, and then notifies the form's creator. A reply you received a few minutes ago may not appear in the count yet.
Read the grid and export a list
The submissions grid shows every reply. Export a CSV when the caterer or the door team needs the list, and compare it with the invitation list to find the names that have not answered.
Follow up with the undecided guests yourself
The form does not send reminders. Write to anyone who chose not sure yet before your own reply date, and say whether their seat is being held.
Frequently asked questions
Is there a free RSVP form?
This page gives you the fields to copy into any form tool. It does not supply a downloadable template file, and it does not state any price. Check the pricing for whichever tool you choose before you rely on it for a paid event.
Can I build the RSVP in Google Forms instead?
Google Forms can collect the same answers. The fields in this guide work in any form tool, so choose the one your team can read responses from and share by a single link.
How do I create an RSVP form in Attain OS?
Pick the event category and a form type, or start a custom form, then answer a few setup questions. Edit the fields so they match the list above before you publish, and share the link with your guests.
Should an RSVP form have a reply date?
Yes, when you need a headcount by a certain day for the caterer. State the date in the invitation and in the form's introduction, and say what happens to a seat that has not been confirmed by then.
How long should an RSVP form take to fill in?
Keep it short enough that a guest can finish it on a phone while reading the invitation. The stats above estimate the time from the field types, so use that number to decide which optional questions to remove.
