ASIC ID Check API

POST
/asic_id_check
LIVE

Verifies an individual against the ASIC officeholder and shareholder register using their name and date of birth. The response is a compact match_results summary telling you whether the details match an ASIC record, without exposing PII. Use it when you need to confirm a person is on the ASIC register without ordering the full extract.

Common Questions tag

Everything you need to know about implementation details and compliance infrastructure.

rocket_launch Implementation

How does the name matching work?

add

Case-insensitive after normalisation. Accents are transliterated, apostrophes ignored (O'Donnell matches ODonnell). Hyphens are significant (Smith-Jones is not the same as Smith Jones). No fuzzy matching. Exact after normalisation.

rocket_launch Implementation

Can a check pass when middle_name: no_match?

add

Yes. Middle names are reported but don’t gate the result. ASIC’s middle-name records are inconsistent (missing, initial-only, or partially recorded), so middle name is a soft signal rather than a hard requirement.

help_center General

When should I use this vs asic_extract_person_search?

add

Use this when you only need a yes-or-no answer about ASIC presence. Use asic_extract_person_search when you actually need the ASIC person_id to order an extract.
