What to hide on a passport

The MRZ (the two bottom lines), the passport number and the signature are the highest-risk zones. IdentiShield ships a passport template (Spanish and generic ICAO) with these marked.

FAQ

What is the passport MRZ and why hide it?

It is the machine-readable zone with your name, number, nationality and dates in plain text. Hiding it prevents your data from being extracted from the copy.
