Visitor badges that expire on their own
Two-part system: This badge front is not a full solution. A compatible badge back is required for use.
The Genuine TEMPbadge T6404 is a 1 15/16 x 2 7/8 inch handwritten self-expiring badge front preprinted CONTRACTOR, with a half-day timer, sold in a box of 1,000.
How it works
Fill in the front with any standard pen, then attach it to a TEMPbadge badge back. Attaching the front starts the half-day chemical timer, and red expiration bars develop in about 4-6 hours, so anyone can see the badge is no longer valid.
What you need
A TEMPbadge badge back. Backs are universal, so they work with any front time frame; clip-on and adhesive versions are available.

The color builds until the badge reads expired
Once the badge is activated, dye migrates at a steady rate and the expiring area shades from white to pink to red. These are the actual TEMPbadge lab shade charts; the dashed box marks the recommended expiration time.
Times are approximate. The timer is chemical: warmth and humidity speed it up, cool dry air slows it down.
Expiration times are guidelines, not exact clocks. The timer is chemical and made for indoor use: warmer or more humid air runs it faster, cooler and drier air runs it slower.
