Are you in a role that requires you to verify identity documents like ID cards and passports? Whether you're a police officer, customs official, bank employee, or rental car company staff, the ID Card Checker app is here to assist you. By evaluating the machine-readable zone of the identity card, this app helps you ensure the validity and accuracy of the information provided.

With a focus on evaluating the machine-readable zone of passports based on ICAO standards, the ID Card Checker calculates and verifies critical data points like birth dates, expiration dates, and check digits. In the pro-version, users can assess the complete machine-readable zone, including serial numbers, personal numbers, and total check IDs, while also gaining insights into OCR-B font characters through examples and comparisons. Additionally, the app offers guidance on detecting fake identity documents with incorrect machine-readable zones.
