Why Use Mindee for Passports?

Passports vary in format depending on the country, language, and issuance authority. Mindee simplifies extraction by letting you:

• Describe which fields matter to you

• Upload sample documents to refine extraction

• Get structured outputs without training models yourself

What Can Be Extracted from a Passport?

Typical passport documents include a standard set of fields. You can, for example, extract the following common fields for passports:

Field	Description
Page Number	Internal page number (if visible)
Country Code	Country of issuance
Identity Number	Passport number
Given Name(s)	First and middle names
Surname	Last name
Date of Birth	In the YYYY-MM-DD format
Place of Birth	City or region of birth
Place of Issue	Location where the passport was issued
Gender	M / F / X
Issuance Date	Passport issue date
Expiry Date	Passport expiration date
MRZ Row #1/Row #2	Machine-readable zone lines

Indian Passport Example

Indian passports include additional region-specific fields. If you're processing Indian passports, our technology is also able to extract, for example, those fields:

Field	Description
Name of Legal Guardian	Often the father’s name or guardian’s name
Name of Spouse	Appears if applicable
Name of Mother	Optional field
Old Passport Number	Prior document if applicable
Old Passport Date of Issue	Issue date of prior passport
Old Passport Place of Issue	Location where the prior passport was issued
File Number	Government-issued file reference
Address Line 1–3	Full residential address

You can just upload an Indian passport and ask to extract the fields present.

Two Ways to Start

1. Choose Passport from Our Catalog (recommended)

• Select "Passport" on our document models.

• The AI will give you a list of fields you can choose from. Select the fields you need and create your first model.

• Option : if you want to refine your model, go to "Data Schema" and ask for additional fields.

• Now that your model is ready, you can try a live test.

2. Build a Passport Model from Scratch

• Ask the specifications directly to the AI assistant (e.g. "I want a model that extracts the following fields from passports: surname, date of birth and MRZ").

• Additionally, you can upload a sample passport if needed for clarification.

• Mindee builds you a tailored parser in seconds.

Document Format

• We support both single-page and multi-page PDFs/images of passports.

• You can add the fields of any page in the data schema as they are all supported by Mindee.
