ID360 allows for the automated collection and verification of the following identity documents:

France:

• National ID card
• Residence permit
• Passport
• Driver’s license (credit card format)

Receipts for identity documents are not accepted. As security elements are absent, we cannot guarantee their authenticity.

Other countries:

Internationally accepted identity documents must comply with one of the following formats: ICAO 9303 / MRTD1, CIF <2021, MRTD2, MRTD3, MRVA/MRVB — refer to the exhaustive list of accepted documents at: https://www.consilium.europa.eu/prado/en/search-by-document-country.html

ID360 performs identity document verification in two main steps: data extraction and data validation.

ID360 can extract data from both the VIZ (Visual Inspection Zone) and the MRZ (Machine Readable Zone).

The MRZ is the area of an identity document that contains encoded information in a machine-readable format. It is typically located at the bottom of a passport's data page or on the back of a national ID card. In the context of remote identity verification, the MRZ allows systems to quickly and automatically read key details such as the name, document number, and expiry date. Optical character recognition (OCR) algorithms are used to extract and decode this information, enabling rapid and accurate user identity verification.

The VIZ is the section of the identity document that contains information visible to the naked eye, such as the name, date of birth, nationality, photo, signature, and other personal details. In remote identity verification solutions, the VIZ is used to authenticate the document. The data from the VIZ is cross-checked with the MRZ information to detect any inconsistency or potential forgery.

For a number of countries, ID360 is able to perform cross-checks between the data extracted from the MRZ and the information extracted from the VIZ. Please refer to the table below for more details about accepted identity documents per country in this context.

After extracting the data and applying relevant cross-checks, ID360 proceeds to validate the document’s legitimacy — for example, by checking whether the document has expired.

→ An expired document may still have a valid MRZ and allow for successful data extraction, but it will ultimately be rejected if the expiry date has passed.

Below is the list of countries for which we perform cross-checks between VIZ and MRZ data. Reference models for ID documents (passport, national ID card, residence permit) are available here: Council of the European Union – PRADO – Search by issuing country.

Please note that some documents may have been issued after the mentioned reference dates. It is recommended to verify whether the document matches the referenced model.

Below is the list of countries for which the MRZ (Machine Readable Zone) is extracted from documents. Note that a document mentioned in this list may also appear in the list of documents eligible for VIZ+MRZ cross-checks (mentioned above).

*Note:* The mentioned date refers to the year of first issuance of the document model (passport, national ID card, residence permit), as referenced by PRADO: Council of the European Union – PRADO – Search by issuing country.

For example:

This model is FRA-AO-03004. In the Excel file, this passport will be listed as: “Passport 2019”, since its first issuance date is 2019. Please note that documents may be issued after the stated date, and it is advised to regularly check PRADO to verify whether the document model is still valid.

For some countries, no passport is referenced in PRADO: in these cases, *passport* is written in italics. This refers to a passport model found through web searches, indicating the presence of an MRZ, but not officially listed in PRADO, and with no known issuance date.
