Mexico CURP Verification API

Onboarding users in Mexico means confirming they are who they claim to be. Verifies Mexican CURP against the RENAPO national identifier registry. A document or a typed-in detail only proves the data exists — not that it is genuine or belongs to the person in front of you. Mexico CURP Verification closes that gap by checking the data against the country's official government identity registry. This guide explains what the check does, the exact technical details, and how to integrate it in minutes.

Key takeaways:

• What it checks — Mexico CURP Verification validates national ID against the country's official government identity registry.
• What you get back — a normalized match_type plus field-level results you can route straight into approve / review / reject logic.
• Why it matters — A document can be forged; a registry record cannot. Validating the ID against the authoritative government source confirms the holder is real and correctly identified.
• How to use it — one POST to Didit's database-validation endpoint, or a no-code workflow module. $0.20 per conclusive query, results in seconds.

What Mexico CURP Verification validates

Verifies Mexican CURP against the RENAPO national identifier registry. Didit exposes it through a single endpoint so you can verify the submitted data against the country's official government identity registry and receive a structured, normalized result — not a raw registry dump you have to parse yourself.

A conclusive response returns the matched source_data and a per-field validation block, so your risk engine gets a clear, machine-readable verdict.

Why it matters

A document can be forged; a registry record cannot. Validating the ID against the authoritative government source confirms the holder is real and correctly identified.

For regulated businesses in Mexico — fintechs, crypto platforms, lenders, marketplaces, and gaming operators — checking against an authoritative source produces a defensible, auditable record that identity was confirmed at the source, not merely captured from a form or a photo.
