At every university that l took exams photo id was required to sit the exam.

I'd guess that people who are willing and able to afford hiring someone to cheat for them in an exam, can probably also order a fake ID with their name and the photo of their exam-taker.

Though maybe an extra step of storing a copy of the ID with the exam entry and having a professor who knows them verify that it matches the real student would catch most of that...

Where? In the US I've never had to do so.
Not in the US. EU.
