Modular Open Source Identity Platform (MOSIP)

At MOSIP, we believe that a nation's digital ID system must be inclusive and accessible to truly benefit all residents. This is why systems built on MOSIP are designed with inclusion at the forefront. We aim to create an equitable and accessible identification framework for everyone, ensuring no one is left behind.

We are pleased to announce the launch of Claim 169 – a standardised, interoperable QR code, now successfully registered in the CBOR Web Token (CWT) Registry by IANA, as specified by MOSIP. By enabling secure facial authentication in remote areas with limited network connectivity, Claim 169 represents an important milestone in our goal to enhance interoperability and enable residents with reliable access to social benefits and government services. We look forward to the broader adoption of this standard, and remain committed to advancing interoperability through our work around the world.
