The Original ID report

The Enhanced NFC ID report contains the following sections:

Document Report

As part of the Original ID verification process, your client will be asked to upload a picture of their photo ID into the Thirdfort app.

This tells you whether or not the document submitted by your client has been reported as lost to the police, whether it is genuine, and whether the information on the document matches the data supplied by the client.

This will also tell you whether the information in the machine-readable zone (MRZ) matches the information listed on the document.

Once uploaded, our software will perform a series of verification checks on the document to ensure its authenticity. These are outlined on the resulting ID report. A copy of the ID document is included in Appendix 2 of the report for your review and file. 

Below is an example of a Document report that has passed all checks:

Where a verification check requires your attention, 'Consider' will be displayed. This indicates there is an element of the report to review. 

For a full breakdown of what each flag can be found, please see Flags on an Original ID report.

The Facial Similarity Report

The Facial Similarity verification confirms whether the person completing the verification process is in fact the document holder, by comparing the biometrics of the face with the selfie video uploaded in the app. 

Here is an example of a Facial Similarity report that has passed all checks:
