What Procurement Teams Ask

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a mobile driver's licence?

A mobile driver's licence (mDL) is a government-issued digital credential stored in a smartphone wallet: Apple Wallet, Google Wallet, or an EU EUDI Wallet. It is cryptographically signed by the issuing authority and bound to the user's device via the Secure Enclave. As of mid-2026, 21 US states have live mDL programmes.

How is mDL verification different from traditional document OCR?

OCR reads a photograph and extracts text, a process defeatable by high-quality forgeries or AI-generated documents. mDL verification reads a cryptographically signed credential and validates each field against the issuing authority's digital signature. A valid mDL cannot be forged without the user's device and biometric authentication.

What happens if a user does not have a mobile driver's licence?

Shufti's hybrid flow routes users without a digital wallet through the physical document path, covering any government-issued document type across 240+ regions. The routing is handled automatically within the integration; no separate logic is required. Every user completes verification regardless of whether mDL is available in their state.

What does selective disclosure mean for GDPR compliance?

Selective disclosure lets the verifier request only the minimum data elements required. A flow requesting age_over_21 receives a boolean, not a full date of birth or home address. This directly supports GDPR Article 5(1)(c) data minimisation and reduces the PII surface area held by the verifying organisation.

What eIDAS 2.0 deadlines apply?

EU member states must issue EUDI Wallets by December 2026. Regulated private-sector entities in financial services, travel, and telecommunications must accept EUDI Wallet credentials by December 2027, with penalties up to €5 million per infringement. The EUDI Wallet uses the same ISO 18013-5 mdoc format as US mDLs, so a single integration covers both jurisdictions.

What security certifications cover the mDL verification flow?

The biometric component is covered by Shufti's iBeta Level 3 PAD certification (0% APCER / 0% BPCER, May 2026). The overall platform carries SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001:2022, PCI DSS Level 1, and GDPR compliance.

How long does integration take?

The mDL endpoint extends Shufti's existing identity verification API. Organisations already integrated for physical document verification do not require a new build. The same webhook delivers results from both mDL and physical document paths. A sandbox environment is available for pre-production testing at no additional cost.

Evaluate Whether Your Verification Stack Covers MDL

mDL adoption is live across 21 US states. EU mandates arrive December 2027. The earlier you integrate, the less you are doing it under pressure.
