UAE Government launches Blockchain VERIFY Digital platform

The UAE Telecommunications and Digital Regulatory Authority ( TDRA) has launched the Blockchain VERIFY digital platform. The UAE VERIFY blockchain enabled digital platform enables instant verification of any user's digital Trusted Document. A Digital Trusted Document on the VERIFY platform is a document issued by VERIFY Partners , where its data is digested into a hash and recorded on the Blockchain. This generates a footprint that can always be validated by VERIFY. It verifies the authenticity, integrity and validity of the document from the official source.

In a twitter video the UAE TDRA announced the launch. The VERIFY digital trusted document platform currently has nine live partners, 19 digital trusted document types with 1,172,286 digital trusted documents issued and 14, 663 digital trusted documents verified.

On this occasion, I can only commend the partners of the first phase of the platform, namely the Ministry of Interior, the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Health and Prevention, the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Community Development, the Ministry of Climate Change and Environment, the General Authority of Civil Aviation, the Federal Authority for Identity, Citizenship, Customs and Ports Security, and the Dubai Land Department.

As per the UAE verify website, as a Document Owner, users can request a “Digital Trusted Document” from VERIFY Partners’ channel or request it through UAE PASS app. This will allow users to share their documents with any third party through various available online channels.

As a recipient of a “Digital Trusted Document”, users can verify its authenticity ,integrity and validity from the official source on UAE Verify Platform by uploading the document. Users can also verify the "Digital Trusted Document” by scanning the QR code presented by the document owner through their UAE PASS app.

UAE VERIFY platform will check the hash of the “Digital Trusted Document” registered on the Blockchain and verify that the document comes from the official source and has not been tampered with. UAE VERIFY also provides a real-time status of the document life cycle from the official source.
