A display device includes a substrate defining a display area having a plurality of pixels therein and a non-display area; a gate electrode in the display area; a panel identification layer in a panel identification area of the non-display area; a gate insulation layer on the gate electrode; a first passivation layer on the gate insulation layer; a planarization layer on the first passivation layer; and a second passivation layer on the planarization layer, wherein the second passivation layer and the planarization layer are absent in a portion of the panel identification area such that a portion of the first passivation layer is not covered by the second passivation layer and the planarization layer.
