What document verification options are available?
At SmartSearch, we have three key document verification options available to our clients, with each one being suitable for different business needs and operations:
-
Basic document verification
The first option we offer is basic document verification, involving an OCR algorithmic check on the ID document’s MRZ (Machine Readable Zone). This system verifies whether the document you’ve been given is genuine and unaltered, whilst also screening for PEP and Sanction matches.
-
Basic document verification with facial recognition
Our second option is basic document verification with facial recognition, further enhancing your digital identity procedures. Combining leading document authentication technology with the latest biometric verification and liveness detection techniques provides a true picture of your customer.

Enhanced document verification
Our third option is enhanced document verification, providing an additional level of security for your business. This check requests manual scrutiny by an ID Document expert, who will then examine every aspect of the document.
