Passport Verification — Global & Secure
Verify passports in real time with MRZ parsing (ICAO 9303), OCR of bio‑page, expiry checks, and optional NFC chip read for ePassports. Reduce fraud and accelerate international onboarding.
Why Passport Verification?
Passports are a primary identity document for cross‑border users. Automated MRZ/OCR/NFC checks validate authenticity, reduce manual review, and help you comply with KYC/AML globally.
- • MRZ parsing (TD1/TD2/TD3) with checksum validation
- • OCR extraction of name, number, DOB, expiry, nationality
- • Optional NFC chip read for ePassports (DG1/DG2 where permitted)
- • Masking of passport number and sensitive fields
