US Passport OCR API

Every US passport contains over 50 essential data fields that businesses across industries desperately need—passport numbers, expiration dates, personal identifiers, issued locations, visa pages, and biometric information—yet most organizations still rely on error-prone manual processes that consume 15-25 minutes per document review, create severe compliance bottlenecks, and expose companies to identity fraud risks costing the US economy $56 billion annually. From banks struggling with KYC compliance delays that push customers to competitors, to travel agencies losing bookings while manually verifying document authenticity, to HR departments spending weeks processing international employee onboarding, the cost of manual passport verification extends far beyond operational inefficiency—it directly threatens regulatory standing, customer retention, and competitive positioning in an increasingly digital marketplace.

Veryfi’s US Passport OCR API revolutionizes this antiquated process by instantly extracting structured, validated data from physical and digital passport images with 99.7%+ accuracy, eliminating manual transcription errors, reducing identity verification time by 85%, and ensuring compliance with federal regulations like the PATRIOT Act and BSA requirements. Whether you’re processing dozens of passports daily for boutique travel services or thousands for enterprise financial institutions, our advanced AI technology scales seamlessly to transform US passports into instant, actionable business intelligence, helping progressive organizations across every sector—from cryptocurrency exchanges ensuring AML compliance to hospitality chains accelerating guest check-ins—stop hemorrhaging money to verification delays and start capturing the revenue acceleration that comes from real-time, automated identity processing.
