Sistema de Identidad Digital, translated as “Digital Identity System,” is a free tool that remotely verifies the identity of an Argentinian citizen. It leverages facial recognition technology not only to ensure a faster verification process but also to prevent identity theft.

ID scanning and proof of life test

While Sistema de Identidad Digital asks you to scan a webpage’s QR code, it is not clear which page the app pertains to, puzzling users. If you’ve found it, you can proceed with scanning the front and back part of your ID followed by a proof of life test.

During this test, make sure you’re in a well-lit room and provide an unobstructed view of your face. Glasses must not be worn, too. Once done, the app will cross-check your data with the one from RENAPER, and your identity will be verified in no time.

Identity verification at your fingertips

To close, Sistema de Identidad Digital makes identity verification accessible to most Argentinian users, enabling them to complete the whole procedure from their smart devices. While the app doesn’t mention which webpage you need to access to scan a QR code, the overall verification process is straightforward.
