FlyID keeps your passports, visas, and travel documents organized in one place, so you can find the details you need before a trip, during an application, or when something is about to expire. Scan once. Stop hunting through your camera roll, emails, folders, and physical documents. Never miss an expiry date again, and never scramble for your passport details at the last minute. With FlyID, you can save your travel documents, track expiry dates, manage family profiles, prepare renewals, and keep important document details ready when you need them. ALL YOUR TRAVEL DOCUMENTS IN ONE PLACE Store passports, visas, and supported MRZ-compatible ID cards as structured records with document numbers, names, countries, expiry dates, captured images, and additional details. Find the right document quickly without searching through old photos or pulling out your physical passport every time. COPY DETAILS WHEN YOU NEED THEM Quickly copy passport numbers, names, dates, and other details from one place when filling out forms, booking flights, or applying for visas. No switching between apps. No retyping. No mistakes. SCAN, DON’T TYPE Use your camera or import a document photo. FlyID reads the MRZ and turns the document into a reusable record you can review before saving. No manual typing. No hunting for the right field. No starting from scratch every time. PASSPORT NFC VERIFICATION For supported e-passports, FlyID can read the passport chip using NFC and retrieve the chip photo when available. A successful NFC read adds stronger confidence than camera capture alone. Pro users can keep the verified state, verification timestamp, and chip face photo on the saved passport.
