Identity check suits every screening profile
An Identity check, or ID check, is the most frequently performed check within Validata’s screening profiles. The identity of a (potential) employee is verified by examining a passport, ID card, or residence permit. By doing this, as an organisation, you are sure that the (potential) employee is who they claim to be. Validata checks the identity on both a national and an international level.
Online ID check quickly taken care of by Validata
The (potential) employee is asked to upload a scan of the passport, ID card, or residence permit in Validata’s secure online system. This is also possible using a mobile phone or tablet device. Via a special mobile-friendly function in our application, you can easily take a photo of the document which is saved directly in your personal account.
Identity verification through our partner Mitek
The scan or photo  of ID is sent to data supplier Mitek, the industry leader in digital identification on an international level. They check the authenticity and validity of the document.. In addition, Mitek inspects whether a passport or ID card appears in the VIS register (Verification Identification System). This includes all documents previously reported as stolen or missing.
Citizen Service Number (BSN) identification
Please note: for privacy reasons, Validata is not authorised to process the citizen service number (BSN). That is why we ask (potential) employees to cover and protect their Citizen Service Number before uploading the scan or photo of their identification in Validata’s secure online system.
Identity check in line with GDPR guidelines
To comply with current privacy laws and regulations, such as the General Data Processing Regulation (GDPR), personal data – in this case, the passport, ID card or residence permit copy– will be removed from Validata’s system within 14 days after completing the Identity check.
