Capture government ID
Signers photograph the front and back of a passport, driver's license, or national ID card from any phone or webcam.
Identity Verification
Know exactly who signed.
For contracts that demand more than an email confirmation, BeeSign Identity Verification adds government ID checks, liveness detection, and per-signer digital certificates — turning every signature into an eIDAS-compliant Advanced Electronic Signature.
What you get with AES
Advanced Electronic Signatures aren't just regular e-signatures with extra steps. They're a different legal instrument — one designed to stand up under the scrutiny that high-value contracts attract.
- Verified government-issued ID for every signer
- Biometric liveness check, not just an ID photo
- OTP at the moment of signing
- Digital certificate issued per signer
- Cryptographic seal binding identity to document
The verification flow
What your signers experience — fast, guided, and works on any device with a camera.
2
Match the face, prove they're live
A short selfie video confirms the person is present and matches the photo on the document — no spoofs, no stand-ins.
3
Confirm with OTP
A one-time password sent to the verified email or phone seals the signing event with a second factor.
4
Issue a per-signer certificate
BeeSign generates a digital certificate cryptographically tied to the verified identity and binds it to the signed document.
Why it matters
The difference between "this document was signed" and "this person, with verified identity, signed this document."
eIDAS-Compliant AES
Meets the European Union standard for Advanced Electronic Signatures — the highest level of e-signature assurance short of Qualified Electronic Signatures.
Real Identity, Not an Email
A standard signature proves a document was signed. AES proves who signed it — backed by a verified government ID, not just an email click.
Tamper-Evident Sealing
The signed document and certificate are sealed together with cryptographic hashes. Any later modification is immediately detectable.
Optional Per Document
Use AES only when you need it. Standard signatures stay free of per-signer fees — turn on identity verification for high-stakes documents.
Global Document Coverage
Supports passports, driver's licenses, and national ID cards from over 200 countries — wherever your business needs to operate.
Privacy-First Handling
ID images are processed for verification and stored under strict access controls. You stay in control of what happens to the data after.
Standard signature vs. Advanced Electronic Signature
Both are legally binding. They prove different things.
Standard Signature
Included with every BeeSign plan. Perfect for routine contracts, NDAs, and internal approvals.
- ESIGN- and UETA-compliant
- Typed and draw signatures
- Tamper-evident audit trail
HIGHEST ASSURANCE
Advanced Electronic Signature
Add identity verification when the stakes are higher. Pay only for the signers you verify.
- Everything in Standard, plus:
- Government ID + liveness check
- Per-signer digital certificate
- eIDAS-compliant under EU regulation
- OTP
When to use it
Identity Verification shines anywhere a dispute would be costly to defend.
High-Value Contracts
M&A agreements, loan documents, real estate closings — anywhere a signature dispute would be expensive.
Regulated Industries
Financial services, legal, healthcare, and insurance workflows that require strong proof of signer identity.
KYC & Onboarding
New customer agreements where you need to verify identity once and bind it to the signing event.
Cross-Border Agreements
Contracts spanning EU jurisdictions where eIDAS-compliant AES is the recognized standard for enforceability.
