IDENTITY DOCUMENTS

National ID, Passport, and License — Confirmed at the Source

National ID verification, passport verification, and driving license verification — checked directly against the issuing authority, not just examined for how they look.

Why Identity Documents

A national ID or passport can be a genuine document that's expired, altered, or reported lost or stolen — none of which is visible from a photocopy. Verification confirms current, valid status directly with the issuing government body.

People Diligence checks identity documents against the actual authority's records, so what's confirmed is status — not just that the document looks correctly formatted.
