Stolen Document Check for Safer Verification
Check whether a Dutch identity document has been reported lost, stolen, or
otherwise invalid before accepting it in your verification workflow.
- Dutch VIS database check
- Official document status
- Integrated ID verification
- Structured API results
Add a Stolen Document Check Before Acceptance
Document authenticity alone does not reveal whether an ID has already been reported lost or stolen. Add a status check before onboarding continues.
Catch Lost or Stolen Documents Before Onboarding
An authentic identity document can still carry an invalid status. A stolen document check adds the missing status signal before the document is accepted.
Authentic Document, Invalid Status
A genuine document may still be presented after its owner has reported it stolen. Visual inspection alone cannot reveal that status.
- Authentic document
- Reported stolen
- Identity fraud risk
Still Active in Appearance
A lost passport or identity card may look valid while remaining listed in official records as missing or unusable.
- Reported lost
- Official status record
- Hidden onboarding risk
