Yes. ComplyCube supports NFC (Near Field Communication) verification for eligible electronic identity documents (eIDs), including biometric passports, national identity cards, residence permits, and other documents that contain an embedded RFID chip.
Using an NFC-enabled smartphone, ComplyCube can securely read and verify data stored on the document's chip, providing an additional layer of assurance beyond visual document inspection alone.
NFC verification can help validate:
- Chip authenticity
- Document integrity
- Personal data stored on the chip
- Embedded biometric information, where available
- Consistency between the chip and the document's visual data
- Signs of document tampering, cloning, or manipulation
Because the data stored on the chip is protected using cryptographic security mechanisms defined by international standards, NFC verification provides one of the highest levels of confidence that a document is genuine and has not been altered.
Combined with ComplyCube's document verification, biometric verification, liveness detection, and fraud prevention capabilities, NFC verification helps organisations strengthen:
- Identity verification
- KYC and customer onboarding
- Age verification
- Account opening
- Fraud prevention and anti-spoofing controls
- Higher-assurance and regulated workflows
ComplyCube supports NFC verification through its iOS, Android, React Native, and Flutter SDKs for compatible devices and supported document types.
