How identity verification works in Dominican Republic.
- Fraud landscape
- Three pressures shape Dominican identity fraud: deepfake and synthetic-Cédula attacks on the wave of digital wallets and SB-licensed payment institutions like Tpago, Cédula document forgery across the chip and legacy formats, and AML pressure from the high-volume USD-DOP remittance corridor with the United States. Didit scores 200+ real-time fraud signals on every session — face morph, replay, injection, document tampering, device intelligence, IP geolocation.
- Compliance frameworks
- Ley 155-17 (PLA/FT)
- Ley 172-13 (Datos Personales)
- Ley 249-17 Mercado de Valores
- SB Reglamento de Prevención del Lavado de Activos
- FATF 40 recommendations
