Didit ID Verification API

Overview

Verifies identity documents by submitting images of the front and back sides. Performs OCR extraction, MRZ parsing, authenticity checks, and document liveness detection.

Key constraints:

• Supported formats: JPEG, PNG, WebP, TIFF
• Maximum file size: 5MB per image
• All document corners must be visible, full-color, no glare/shadows
• Original real-time photos only (no screenshots, scans, or digital copies)

Coverage: 4,000+ document types, 220+ countries, 130+ languages. Supports passports, national ID cards, driver's licenses, and residence permits.

Processing pipeline:

1. Intelligent capture & document type detection
2. OCR text extraction + MRZ/barcode parsing
3. Template matching, security feature validation, tamper detection
4. Document liveness (detects screen captures, printed copies, portrait manipulation)

Common Workflows

Basic ID Verification

1. POST /v3/id-verification/ → front_image (+ back_image if applicable)
2. If "Approved" → extract first_name, last_name, date_of_birth, document_number
   If "Declined" → check warnings:
     DOCUMENT_EXPIRED → ask for valid document
     SCREEN_CAPTURE_DETECTED → ask for real photo of physical document
     MRZ_VALIDATION_FAILED → ask for clearer image

Full Identity Verification Pipeline

1. POST /v3/id-verification/ → verify document
2. POST /v3/passive-liveness/ → verify real person
3. POST /v3/face-match/ → compare selfie to document portrait
4. POST /v3/aml/ → screen extracted name/DOB/nationality
5. All Approved → fully verified identity
