Document Check

Verify your clients' ID documents to extract details and confirm their authenticity.

About service

Utilizes ComplyCube's state-of-the-art AI and advanced analytics to perform 7 categories of analysis on government-issued ID documents, including detailed checks on visual security elements, potential tampering or manipulation, document liveness, and blacklist checks.

It will also extract all available data and images from the document's Visual Inspection Zone (VIZ), Machine Readable Zone (MRZ), RFID chip, and barcodes.

ComplyCube supports a myriad of country and ID combinations. These include passports, driving licenses, identity cards, residence permits, travel documents, and visa stamps.

Learn about the Document Checks API.

Even though it is possible to run this check entirely through our API, we highly recommend that you run it through our Hosted Solution, Web SDK, or native Mobile SDKs. These SDKs guide your clients through the capture process, aiding them with completing the flow successfully with minimal friction and false-positive outcomes.

Data extraction and analysis related to the RFID chip are exclusively available via our Mobile SDKs.

This service automatically redacts sensitive fields from document images and checks results.
