Phone

A code by SMS, in most countries. Some regions may not get the SMS; Prson doesn't list them yet. The person proves the number with a code sent by SMS through Firebase phone sign-in in the Prson app. Which regions can receive that SMS is set in Firebase, outside Prson's code, so this page marks each country "not confirmed" rather than guess. A phone is a premium requirement.

Postal address

A code by letter to any country: printed locally in CH, DE, AT, FR, BE, LU, ES, NL and UK; elsewhere posted from abroad by DHL, which takes longer. Prson's print partner, Pingen, sends a one-page letter with a code by economy post. The code works for 45 days; if the letter hasn't arrived after 14 days, the person can ask for a new one. Letters posted from abroad are slower than locally printed ones. An address is a premium requirement.

The address_country_eq_XX facts cover EU countries only; any country can verify the address itself.

Where this comes from

  • Passport and ID card chips: the trust list of country signing certificates Prson checks chips against (844 certificates), the same data as the map on app.prson.net. "Not confirmed" means Prson hasn't checked whether that country's ID card has a chip it can read.
  • Phone: on in production. Per-country SMS delivery is unknown.
  • Postal address: on in production. Pingen prints in 9 countries and sends the rest by DHL; delivery times outside them are not measured yet.
  • Bank checks: planned; asking for them is refused today.
