ePassport/Visa

The need to reduce document fraud, to prevent counterfeiting as well as forgery, and to enhance the security of travel documents persists more than ever. The demand for a universal implementation of secure, reliable Machine Readable Travel Documents (MRTD) has become even more pressing, since the enormous growth of international air travel. The answer to this global challenge to facilitate speedier passenger clearance without comprising true security lies in the machine readability and biometric enhancement of documents.

Therefore, we offer functional, consistent, and scalable solutions, which ensure full compliance with the current and emerging recommendations and standards from ICAO and ISO surrounding the issuance and security of ePassports and other MRTDs. Our solutions empower government authorities around the globe to provide citizens with secure, efficient, and friendly service.

To create secure Machine Readable Travel Documents, we offer our powerful, state-of-the-art software IDExpert™ ProACT, a platform for the development of ready to use customized applications with workflow management.

The IDExpert™ ProACT provides configurable interfaces that can be used to connect to multiple data sources or to integrate blacklist checks, as well as biometric identification and verification using facial recognition, fingerprint or iris scanning.

To develop your own unique applications, we offer the IDExpert™ ToolACT which provides all of the tools and functions necessary for layout designing, data capturing, printing and encoding.

Capturing sharp, clear images is essential, particularly as ICAO has specified the face as the primary biometric source. In response to such requirements, we offer high-quality EDIsecure® Image Capturing Modules, which utilize software-driven functionality to let you capture perfect images. Our EDIsecure® Image Enhancement Software and integrated quality assurance tools will only accept digital photos that are ICAO-compliant.

Our personalization systems print visible personal data with colored photos as well as covert information such as IPI (Invisible Personal Information). Credentials can also be secured with unique, holographic laminates or with LetterScreen. For ePassport applications, biometric information about the document owner can be saved digitally and secured electronically in the contactless crypto processor chip.

We ensure that your secure travel documents are trusted worldwide.
