Build trust into digital onboarding
Synthetic identities and deepfakes are making digital interactions harder to trust. At the same time, organisations must balance stronger identity assurance with the fast, low-friction onboarding experiences customers expect. Document and Biometric Verification helps address this challenge by analysing government-issued documents and biometric data within one automated workflow.
The solution supports remote identity verification and forms part of LSEG Identity Verification Solutions. Organisations can use it alongside data-based consumer and business identity verification or identity checks available through LSEG World-Check One, depending on their onboarding, screening and risk-management requirements.

Why choose LSEG Document and Biometric Verification?
Balance assurance with customer experience
Remote onboarding requires strong identity checks without creating unnecessary friction for legitimate customers. Document and Biometric Verification combines multiple checks in one automated workflow, helping organisations strengthen identity assurance while supporting a seamless experience. This balance can help teams build more effective onboarding journeys that reflect both their risk requirements and customers’ expectations for fast, convenient digital interactions.
Respond to sophisticated fraud techniques
Synthetic identities, deepfakes, document forgery and spoofing attacks create new challenges for remote verification. Advanced AI analyses document and biometric evidence to help organisations detect these techniques during onboarding. Combining several forms of identity evidence provides a stronger basis for assessment than relying on a single method, helping review teams respond to increasingly sophisticated attempts to misrepresent a customer’s identity.
Support international onboarding
Broad document and language coverage can help organisations apply a consistent verification approach across markets. The solution supports more than 16,000 document types across over 220 countries and territories, while AI-powered optical character recognition processes identity information across more than 140 languages. This reach supports organisations onboarding customers across multiple geographies and a diverse range of identity documents worldwide.
