Key Facts

  • ReadID reads the chip in e-passports and identity documents over NFC.
  • Certification covers Right to Work, Right to Rent, and Disclosure and Barring Service checks.

Card Text

DIATF certification is becoming a practical market gate in the UK, since employers and landlords relying on digital checks need a certified provider to satisfy statutory obligations. Chip reading matters here because it verifies a cryptographic signature rather than inspecting a document image.
