Didit ID Verification API
Overview
Verifies identity documents by submitting images of the front and back sides. Performs OCR extraction, MRZ parsing, authenticity checks, and document liveness detection.
Key constraints:
- Supported formats: JPEG, PNG, WebP, TIFF
- Maximum file size: 5MB per image
- All document corners must be visible, full-color, no glare/shadows
- Original real-time photos only (no screenshots, scans, or digital copies)
Processing pipeline:
- Intelligent capture & document type detection
- OCR text extraction + MRZ/barcode parsing
- Template matching, security feature validation, tamper detection
- Document liveness (detects screen captures, printed copies, portrait manipulation)
Authentication
All requests require x-api-key header. Get your key from Didit Business Console → API & Webhooks.

Common Workflows
Basic ID Verification
1. POST /v3/id-verification/ → front_image (+ back_image if applicable)
2. If "Approved" → extract first_name, last_name, date_of_birth, document_number
If "Declined" → check warnings:
DOCUMENT_EXPIRED → ask for valid document
SCREEN_CAPTURE_DETECTED → ask for real photo of physical document
MRZ_VALIDATION_FAILED → ask for clearer image
Full Identity Verification Pipeline
1. POST /v3/id-verification/ → verify document
2. POST /v3/passive-liveness/ → verify real person
3. POST /v3/face-match/ → compare selfie to document portrait
4. POST /v3/aml/ → screen extracted name/DOB/nationality
5. All Approved → fully verified identity
