Supported ID Documents

Bynn maintains an extensive database of supported identity documents from countries and jurisdictions worldwide. Our document support includes passports, national identity cards, driver's licenses, and other government-issued identification documents that can be verified through our identity verification platform.

Document Database Updates

Our supported document database is updated weekly to ensure comprehensive coverage of newly issued and updated identity documents. This frequent update schedule allows us to support the latest document formats, security features, and design changes as they are released by issuing authorities.

The downloadable PDF list of supported documents is updated several times per year for reference purposes. Important: We support significantly more documents than appear on the static PDF list. The weekly database updates ensure that our platform recognizes and can verify documents that may not yet be reflected in the downloadable reference materials.

Document Verification Capabilities

Bynn's document verification system analyzes multiple security features and authentication elements present in modern identity documents:

  • Physical Security Features: Watermarks, holograms, security threads, and specialized printing techniques
  • Digital Security Elements: Machine-readable zones (MRZ), barcodes, and embedded data validation
  • Biometric Verification: Facial image comparison and liveness detection for document holder verification
  • Document Authenticity: Tamper detection, document integrity analysis, and forensic examination

Government and Industry Partnerships

Bynn works directly with government agencies around the globe to obtain the latest identity document templates and specifications as soon as they are released to the public. These partnerships ensure that our verification system can immediately recognize and authenticate newly issued documents without delays.

Our collaboration with the International Air Transport Association (IATA) provides access to the latest travel document standards and specifications. This partnership ensures comprehensive support for international passports and travel documents that comply with ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization) standards.

Driver's license support encompasses state, provincial, and national driver's license formats from jurisdictions worldwide. Regular updates from motor vehicle departments and transportation authorities ensure that our system recognizes the latest license designs and security features.

NFC and PKI Verification

Modern identity documents increasingly incorporate Near Field Communication (NFC) chips that contain encrypted personal data and digital certificates. Bynn maintains current NFC keys for Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) verification of document chips, enabling advanced authentication of chip-embedded data.

NFC verification capabilities include:

  • Chip Data Authentication: Verification of digitally signed data stored within document chips
  • Certificate Chain Validation: Validation of PKI certificates against issuing authority root certificates
  • Anti-Tampering Detection: Detection of chip manipulation or data modification attempts
  • Passive Authentication: Verification of document authenticity through chip-based cryptographic validation

The NFC key database is updated in coordination with document template updates to ensure that chip verification capabilities remain current with newly issued documents.

Implementation Considerations

Organizations implementing Bynn's document verification services should consider the dynamic nature of our document support when planning integration and user experience design. The comprehensive document coverage ensures that users with identity documents from virtually any jurisdiction can complete verification processes successfully.

For specific document support inquiries or verification of support for particular document types, organizations can utilize our API endpoints to query current document support status in real-time. This approach ensures that integration decisions are based on the most current document support information rather than static reference materials.
