Request Free DemoHow to Integrate a Passport Verification API: Step-by-Step Guide
A practical checklist for product and engineering teams adding passport verification to a KYC or onboarding flow.
- Step 1: Set up sandbox access. Request API credentials, test in the sandbox environment and agree on the response fields your onboarding flow needs (name, passport number, nationality, date of birth, expiry date, MRZ).
- Step 2: Capture a clear image of the data page. Guide users to photograph the full passport data page on a flat surface, in good light, without glare, with all four corners and both MRZ lines visible.
- Step 3: Send the image to the API. Upload the image over HTTPS and receive structured JSON with the extracted fields and confidence scores.
- Step 4: Validate the MRZ. Check the MRZ check digits and compare MRZ values against the printed visual zone (name, number, date of birth). Mismatches are a strong tampering signal.
- Step 5: Check validity and match the face. Reject expired passports, then compare the passport photo with a live selfie using face match and liveness detection.
- Step 6: Route the decision. Auto-approve high-confidence results, send low-confidence or mismatched results to a manual review queue, and give users clear feedback to retake poor images.
- Step 7: Store results securely. Keep only the fields you need, encrypt data at rest, log user consent and apply retention rules that meet DPDP Act requirements.
Best Practices
- Show a live camera overlay so users frame the data page correctly on the first attempt.
- Verify the MRZ checksum on every request instead of trusting extracted text alone.
- Set separate confidence thresholds for auto-approval and manual review, and review them monthly.
- Support passports from every country you onboard customers from, including older non-biometric formats.
- Mask passport numbers in logs, dashboards and support tools.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Accepting screenshots or photos of screens without liveness or document-presence checks.
- Ignoring the expiry date because the OCR result "looks correct".
- Sending every low-confidence result back to the user instead of a review queue, which increases drop-off.
- Storing full passport images indefinitely without a documented retention policy.
