FAQ
- What is a non-documentary verification?
Non-documentary verification enables verifying customer identities without requesting their IDs. This verification type is based on customer data verification through public data sources. The customer enters some of their data, such as their identification number, and the verification provider cross-checks it via secure government databases.
- What is an example of non-documentary verification?
An example of non-documentary verification is Sumsub’s 1click onboarding solution, which allows companies to onboard users in 4.5 seconds on average by verifying identification numbers through governmental databases.
- When can the non-documentary method of customer information verification be used?
A non-documentary identity verification method can be used for online customer verification in countries with secure databases. This verification type can be used to significantly speed up user onboarding and increase pass rates, since users only need to provide their identification number
- Documentary vs non-documentary verification: what is the difference?
Documentary verification is based on validating customer identity documents such as IDs, passports, driving licenses, and more. A non-documentary method of verifying identity doesn’t require users to upload their documents, and instead uses their identification numbers to cross–check through public databases.
