We (Shufti Pro) may apply one or more of the following measures at the
request of the Client to perform Identity Verification on its behalf. Where an
End-user is an individual, who does not present himself to the Client for
verification in physical presence.
5.2.1. Shufti Pro shall perform verification of the End-user’s identity on
the basis of documents that are highlighted in 5.3. These
documents provide reasonable reliability to the confirmation of
the identity in Oman. Shufti Pro shall ensure that documents
being utilized are photo-based biometric identification
documents that suffice requirements for Identity Verification.
5.2.2. Shufti Pro can also perform verification of the End-user’s identity
through a real-time audio-video transmission, where a live,
interactive video session is carried out between an Identification
Expert and the End-user. During this session, the End-user will
be asked to show their identity documents. The End-user will
also be asked to perform some random gestures as a part of a
liveness check.
5.2.3. For the purpose of verifying the End-user’s identity, Shufti Pro
shall also verify the documents that are submitted. We utilize our
specialized Document Verification service to perform checks on
the authenticity of the document. This includes checks on
security features such as holograms, tapered/crumpled edges,
doctored elements, form inconsistencies, document expiration,
MRZ, reflected colors and microprinting.
