DESKO products for enhanced security and accuracy

In addition to the name, the date of birth, place of residence and street address must be stated when notarising and certifying documents. According to the current legal situation, the notary should also document in the deed how he has established the identity of the persons involved. For example, by inspecting a valid photo ID card or driving licence. This verification of identity takes place independently of the actual notarisation process, but is recorded in a comprehensible manner for the certificate. Further details such as the issuing authority or the date of issue are not required. However, it is recommended that the exact data be provided, as this makes it easy for notaries to prove that the ID card or similar was actually presented.

Our products support you as a lawyer or notary with industry-specific solutions for the reliable identification of your clients. In addition, our scanners and other ID verification devices as well as the corresponding authentication software help you to optimise data transfer and processing. Maximum security, accelerated work processes and more service for your clients - these are just some of the benefits we offer you with our DESKO devices.

Secure authentication of ID documents

It is essential for lawyers and notaries to establish the identity of all parties. Whether you represent your clients in legal matters as a lawyer or whether you notarize wills, property sales or child recognitions as a notary, the identity of the persons present must be legally verified. A mere visual inspection of ID documents carries risks, because even a trained eye cannot distinguish a good forgery from a genuine ID card. DESKO scanners provide reliable security.
