A question about nobility

Hi I'm new here, and I have a question. How did the nobles proves their noble origins? I know they wear nice clothes and are surrounded by bodyguard but is there a way for the authorities to identify a noble, like the son of a lord? In one story, a child is identified by a fan with his footprint and a written declaration of the father. Is there a similar document for the nobles? I'm just wondering.

Thank you
