When adding new identity documents to the database, Regula’s experts meticulously describe all security features, providing detailed descriptions of how every element should look and how exactly one can verify its genuineness. Recent documents, including those integrated into Regula's 2023 database update, reveal a growing trend for more protection against counterfeits, which leads to including more security features or sophisticating the existing ones.

These “secret” images serve as a highly effective security element, as their intricate and hard-to-replicate details act as a natural deterrent to counterfeiting. (Graphic: Business Wire)
This trend has been particularly evident in the global increase in electronic documents, which have proved to be more fraud-resilient. In 2023, this trend continued evolving, as new countries introduced their first electronic passports. Among them are Bahrain, Iraq, Jamaica, Mongolia, Pakistan, and Somaliland. All of these documents are already in Regula’s database with the most detailed description of their features and references to compare with during the verification process.
“Our aim is to record every security and unique document feature as precisely as possible by using our expertise in forensic analysis and forensic device development. With identity fraud on the rise, it’s vital to know what exactly to pay attention to when verifying a document. By backing up our identity verification solutions with such a comprehensive database of IDs, we ensure a seamless, swift, and accurate verification process, regardless of the document provided,” says Ihar Kliashchou, Chief Technology Officer at Regula.
Since the beginning of the year, Regula has added more than a thousand new document templates to its database. In addition to the previously mentioned e-passports, it enlarged with:
Passports:
- Barbados
- Canada
- China
- Finland
- Indonesia
- Pakistan
- Paraguay
- Uganda
- Vietnam
ID cards:
- Djibouti
- Ethiopia
- Finland
- Greece
- Nepal
- Paraguay
- Switzerland
Driver’s licenses:
- Cyprus
- Greece
- Iraq
- Latvia
- Niue
- Norway
- Sao Tome and Principe
- Somaliland
- Sudan
- Switzerland
- Zimbabwe
Besides, Regula has updated its extensive set of US driver’s licenses and ID cards that differ greatly from state to state. The vendor’s template library now contains the documents issued in 2023, like those of Arizona, Idaho, North Dakota, Virginia, Washington D.C., West Virginia, and Wisconsin.
