POSTVoter ID Verification

Validate EPIC (Voter ID) card details in real time against government records — returns name, age, address, constituency, and polling station information.

POST/tools/kyc/voter-id

The Voter ID Verification API lets you verify an Electoral Photo Identity Card (EPIC) number against government electoral rolls. A single POST call returns the cardholder's full identity profile — name (English and regional language), date of birth, gender, guardian details, structured address, assembly and parliamentary constituency, and polling station — making it suitable for KYC, onboarding, and compliance workflows.
