ID Personalisation
From Data to Verifiable Credential
Identity made secure, portable, and instantly verifiable.
The deduplication process
Verified demographic and biometric data is assembled into a print-ready record, with the photograph, personal fields, and machine-readable elements formatted to the document specification. Production parameters are enforced programmatically to ensure every credential is consistent across all issuance sites.
Direct-to-card and document printers apply high-resolution text, photographs, and graphics to the chosen substrate. Laxton supports polycarbonate and PVC cards as well as passport and travel-document booklets, with printing configured to the security and durability requirements of each programme.
Physical and logical security features are applied during personalisation, including laser engraving, UV printing, holographic overlays, and tamper-evident laminates. These features bind the holder’s data to the document and make alteration or counterfeiting detectable at the point of inspection.
Where the credential carries a chip, personalisation writes demographic and biometric data to the secure element and applies the cryptographic keys required for authentication. Encoded data aligns with international standards, ensuring the document is readable and verifiable by border and government systems worldwide.
Each personalised credential passes an automated and visual quality check before issuance, confirming print clarity, correct data, successful encoding, and intact security features. Cards that fail are logged, spoiled, and reconciled against stock, maintaining full accountability over blank and issued inventory.
Personalisation runs at the point of registration for instant issuance or in a central production facility for high-volume programmes. Both models draw on the same verified data and quality controls, giving programmes the flexibility to issue on the spot or produce centrally at scale.
Identity Credential
Personalisation
Once a citizen’s data is captured, validated, and deduplicated, the personalisation stage prints, encodes, and secures that data onto an ID card or travel document, turning a database record into a verifiable credential.
Secure by Design
Laser engraving, UV printing, and tamper-evident features bind identity to the document and make alteration detectable on sight.
Globally Verifiable
Chip encoding and machine-readable data align with international standards, so credentials are accepted by border and government systems worldwide.
