ICAO Doc 9303 establishes global standards for machine-readable travel documents, including e-passports, specifying their physical formats, embedded digital data, and security mechanisms to support interoperable border verification and reduce identity fraud. E-passports use NFC chips to store biographical and biometric information protected through cryptography, with Basic Access Control requiring data from the passport’s machine-readable zone to access the chip and Extended Access Control providing additional protection for sensitive biometrics. Digital signatures allow authorities to verify that chip data was issued by a legitimate government and has not been altered, while NFC-based checks can help detect tampering, cloning, and inconsistencies between document data and its holder. Didit offers an NFC document-reading module that applies these standards to online identity verification by validating chip signatures, comparing chip data with visually extracted MRZ information, and matching the chip’s facial image to a live selfie, targeting businesses with stringent KYC and AML requirements.
