ReadID - NFC Passport Reader for Android

The ReadID demo app (previously known as NFC Passport Reader) reads and verifies the RFID chip embedded in electronic passports, national identity cards and other ICAO compliant identity documents (ePassport, or, in ICAO 9309 terminology, Machine Readable Travel Documents: MRTD). The app optically scans (OCR) the Machine Readable Zone (MRZ) to gain access to the embedded chip. It then reads the embedded chip using NFC and displays the biographical and biometric information of the document holder, as well as document information, after which security checks, such as Active Authentication, Document Signature Validation, and Country Signature Validation, are performed and detailed results are shown.

The app also supports electronic driving licenses (eDL, ISO 18013, currently limited to Dutch driving licenses).
