Mobile driver’s licenses (mDLs) are state-issued digital versions of physical licenses stored in phone wallets or state apps, enabling businesses and government agencies to receive selectively disclosed, cryptographically signed identity or age information rather than inspect a plastic card. As of 5 October 2026, the TSA accepts eligible digital IDs from 22 US states and territories at more than 250 airports, though travelers are still advised to carry physical identification and coverage outside participating systems remains limited. ISO/IEC 18013-5 governs in-person mDL presentations, while ISO/IEC 18013-7 and emerging technologies such as OpenID4VP and the W3C Digital Credentials API support online verification, although online interoperability is still developing. Verifiers must validate issuer signatures, credential validity, trusted public keys, and potentially revocation status, while maintaining document-and-selfie alternatives for people without compatible mDLs. NIST identifies mDLs as potentially useful for age verification and financial onboarding, but their status under US banking customer-identification rules remains unresolved. Similar ISO-based digital driving-license initiatives are expanding in Europe, while the described provider offers conventional document verification, liveness checks, face matching, and optional mDL acceptance for businesses.
