This app securely reads the NFC chip (CHIP) embedded in electronic identity documents such as passports, ID cards, and residence permits. By simply holding the document near the phone, the app extracts personal data (like name, date of birth, nationality) and biometric data (such as the holder's photo) directly from the contactless chip, ensuring fast, accurate, and secure identity verification.
