A hotel guest register that keeps no copy of the ID

Check a guest’s ID at the front desk in seconds and keep no photocopy, scan or WhatsApp image. A driving licence, voter ID, passport or PAN is checked against live records; Aadhaar guests are checked with your own Aadhaar QR app. You get a clean daily list for the police register, foreign guests flagged for Form C, and a register that deletes itself after the period you choose.

One-time ₹100.00 wallet credit for business accounts once approved. Every check is charged from your wallet at its own rate, and some checks cost more than ₹100.00.

How it works

Check in a guest in five steps

The front desk works from the dashboard or the Android app. A guest can also fill in their own details from a link on their phone.

  1. Step 1

    Start the check-in

    Enter the guest’s name, room, number of adults and expected check-out.

  2. Step 2

    Record consent

    The guest agrees to the check, at the desk or on their own phone. The time of consent is kept with the record.

  3. Step 3

    Check the ID

    Photograph a licence, voter ID, passport or PAN: the number is read from the photo, the photo is discarded, and the ID is checked against live records.

  4. Step 4

    Aadhaar and foreign guests

    For Aadhaar, check it in your own Aadhaar QR app and tick that it was done; no number is stored. Foreign guests are recorded and flagged for Form C.

  5. Step 5

    Check out and report

    Check the guest out, download the day’s police list, and let the register delete the guest’s details after your chosen period.

What is checked

What the register checks and records

One live ID check per guest, or per adult if you choose to count every adult.

Licence, voter ID, passport or PAN

Checked against live records. You see whether the ID exists and whether the name matches the guest.

Aadhaar, without the number

Aadhaar guests are checked with the hotel’s own Aadhaar QR app. The register records that it was done and stores no Aadhaar number.

Foreign guests flagged for Form C

Passport and visa details are recorded, the guest is flagged “Form C required”, and managers are reminded before the 24-hour deadline. Foreign documents are recorded, not verified.

Daily list for the police register

Guest name, room, check-in and check-out times, ID type with its last four characters, nationality and number of adults, in register order.

Who is in the building

An on-premises list of everyone checked in now, as PDF or CSV, for audits and emergencies.

Deletes itself

Guest details are deleted a set number of days after check-out. You choose the period for each property.

If an ID cannot be verified, the desk sees “Could not verify, ask for another document”. Only a manager can check the guest in anyway, and that is written to the audit log.

Privacy

Built to DPDP’s rules: consent, minimum data, no copies, automatic deletion, hosted in India

ID photocopies at reception and ID photos on staff phones are where guest data leaks. The register replaces them with a result and the last four characters.

Consent on record

Every check records who gave consent (the guest, or staff on the guest’s behalf) and when.

Minimum data

The register holds the result, the name match and the ID’s last four characters. Addresses and family details returned by a check are not stored.

No copies of IDs

No photocopy, no scan, no image on a staff phone. The photo is read for the number and discarded.

Automatic deletion

Guest details are deleted a set number of days after check-out (7 to 365; 180 unless you change it). A manager can erase a guest at once.

Hosted in India

The service and its database run in India. Every view, export and change is written to the audit log.

Front-desk roles

Desk staff see what check-in needs and nothing more. Charges and timelines stay with managers.

You stay in charge of the personal data you collect; VerifyAll processes it for you. Read how we protect it on the security page and in the privacy policy.
