IMPORTANT changes

  • New authenticity check introduced for extended validation of OCR properties, such as size, lines and character positions, alignment, background, and others. Currently available for document reader scans only.
  • New authenticity check introduced for portraits on the document. This check is verifying the number of faces present on the document and their exact position, including specific face landmarks, where applicable. Also, face absence is verified in specific places of the document where it should not be present.
  • Native streamline integration of Regula Face SDK is extended for all platforms with automatic face match and search by a portrait taken from the document (visual and chip) or a live owner photo after document processing in the same request. Simplified KYC processing in just one single request.
