Verifies Argentine DNI against the official RENAPER civil registry, with biometric face-match against the photo on file. 100% population coverage. Didit exposes this service through POST /v3/database-validation/ so you can verify the submitted data against the authoritative source and receive normalized match results.

​
Body parameters

​
issuing_state
string
default:"ARG"
required
ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 country code for this database service.Example: ARG
​
services
string
default:"arg_renaper"
required
Array containing this service ID. Pinning the service keeps the request scoped to this exact database.Example: arg_renaper
​
document_number
string
default:"1111111"
required
Document number extracted from or provided by the user.Example: 1111111
​
selfie
file
required
Selfie image file to upload for biometric database validation. Accepted formats: JPEG, PNG, or WebP.Example: @./selfie.jpg
​
gender
string
default:"M"
required
Gender value, when required by the database.Allowed values: M (male), F (female), X (other or unknown).Example: M
​
first_name
string
default:"John"
Given name to validate.Example: John
​
last_name
string
default:"Doe"
Family name to validate.Example: Doe
​
vendor_data
string
default:"user-1234"
Your stable user reference for this person, such as your internal user ID. Didit uses it to link standalone checks to the same end user and reduce duplicate-detection noise.Example: user-1234

​
Input rules & validation notes

  • Argentine DNI (7-8 digits)
  • document_number must contain digits only; remove spaces, hyphens, and punctuation before sending the request.
  • document_number must be 7-8 characters long.

​
How to call it

curl -X POST "https://verification.didit.me/v3/database-validation/" \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -F "issuing_state=ARG" \
  -F "services=arg_renaper" \
  -F "vendor_data=user-1234" \
  -F "document_number=1111111" \
  -F "selfie=@./selfie.jpg" \
  -F "gender=M"

Every successful call returns HTTP 200. The outcome_code field tells you what actually happened — distinguishing, for example, a real biometric mismatch (BIOMETRIC_NO_MATCH) from a selfie that could not be read (BIOMETRIC_IMAGE_UNUSABLE). The status shown is the default feature status; your configured Partial Match / No Match actions can override it.

​
Returned data

The exact fields surfaced in source_data depend on what the registry returns. The generated example for arg_renaper currently documents this normalized shape:
  • banks
  • date_of_birth
  • face_match_score
  • first_name
  • full_name
  • highest_position
  • identification_number
  • last_name
  • last_position
  • rejected_checks
  • sit_1_since
  • tax_id
  • tax_id_type

​
Pricing & SLAs

Argentina - DNI verification (RENAPER) queries are billed only when Didit receives a conclusive result from the validation source.
  • Per-call price: $0.20 USD.
  • Billing: per successful query. You are not charged when the registry is unreachable, when required fields are missing, or when the request is rejected before reaching the source.
  • Latency: typical p95 < 2 s.
  • Availability: 99.9% per quarter on Didit’s side; downstream source availability varies by country and dataset.
