About this check

Goes beyond the free format check: this report verifies the ID number against the Department of Home Affairs database and returns the registered names, surname, date of birth, gender and citizenship.

Use it to confirm an ID number was genuinely issued and belongs to the details you were given.

You must be the person this report is about, or hold their consent / another lawful POPIA basis — confirmed at checkout with a declared purpose. Reports reflect official databases at the moment of generation and are delivered immediately, so the ECT Act cooling-off right doesn’t apply once generation begins; if a report fails to generate you get a re-run or a full refund. See the terms and refund policy.
