Database Verification
Verify collected and extracted PII against authoritative databases and issuing sources across 40+ countries. Achieve immediate identity validation for major geographic jurisdictions.
eCBSV Validation
Compare names, SSNs, and birthdates against official Social Security Administration records to better assess user risk, including synthetic fraud or thin-file profiles.
Note: eCBSV is not a standalone identity verification and should be used with other Identra verifications and signals.
DMV (AAMVA)
Validate information on US driver's licenses and IDs against participating states' DMV records to detect fraudulent IDs. Instantly flag expired, fake, or stolen credentials.
Taxpayer ID (TIN)
Verify that the name and Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN) provided by a user match records in the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) database. Critical for merchant onboarding and KYB.
National Registries
Access local governmental databases across Europe, Latin America, and APAC regions including electoral commissions, civil registries, and tax administration platforms directly.
