Enhanced Features of the ID Document Index

Reconnaissance is pleased to introduce the enhanced features of the ‘ID Document Index’, an online reference tool designed to assist professionals in the identification and authentication of passports and ID documents worldwide. Provided by International Reference Systems and hosted on a robust platform developed by Regula, this index is an essential resource included within your annual subscription to ID & Secure Document News™.

The ID Document Index offers comprehensive information on a wide range of documents, including national passports, ID cards, diplomatic passports, residence permits, and many more. Users can search by country, document type, ISO code, or specific security features, making it an invaluable tool for those in the secure document sector.

What sets this index apart is its extensive collection of high-resolution scans of original documents, presented with clear and detailed descriptions. These include images of both the front and reverse sides of documents under various lighting conditions – white, UV, and IR light – alongside photographic enlargements of key security features. Additionally, the index provides detailed specifications on each document, covering aspects like substrate composition, stitching, positioning of photos, and the inclusion of biometric features such as RFID chips and MRZ validity.
