NFC allows communication with the chip of a supported identity document. Reading data from the chip and completing all verification checks on the document are not the same operation.
Access and verification
Separate the chip-access role of mechanisms such as BAC and PACE from data-integrity and authenticity checks. Do not use technical terms interchangeably.
Document and device scope
Document support, the device's NFC capability and the application platform affect the flow. Define the cases in which a user can retry after a failed read or move to an alternative process.
Assess the result within the whole flow
Chip data is considered together with the person check and other identity steps. If a success rate is published, the document, device, version and test conditions must be stated.
