Changing appleid on a phone

I am trying to change the apple id my phone is connected to from mine to my son's so he can have my phone. When I try and add his apple id to the phone it keeps telling me it is invalid even though I have set it up and it exists. Any ideas why this is happening?? Thanks!

I suggest you complete the steps in the article below to make it 'his' phone. Then try adding his ID again.
