New Car Passports: How QR Code Protects Against Fraudsters.
According to inkorr.com: In the used car market, it is important to be as careful as possible. Verifying the authenticity of the vehicle registration certificate is a key stage in a safe transaction. Modern car passports have an increased level of protection that complicates forgery, as noted by experts from the Main Service Center of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
Main Elements of Car Passport Protection
-
Laser Engraving: The document's number and series are engraved with a laser and have a tactile relief.

Special Ink: Text printed with ink that becomes invisible under infrared light.
-
State Symbols: The background and ornaments contain microscopic symbols of the state of Ukraine.

Updated Holograms: The hologram from the Ministry of Internal Affairs emblem now features new protective markings with three letters and six digits.
Experts also recommend checking the QR code located in the bottom right corner of the car passport. It allows for quick verification of vehicle data via the online service of the Main Service Center.
'Thanks to the QR code, you can access data from the vehicle registry and compare it with the information in the document,' experts explain.

Updating Certificates
By contacting the Ministry of Internal Affairs service center, you can replace the old car passport with a new blank that has an increased level of protection. This will significantly simplify verification and ensure safety during subsequent car transactions.
Owners of old car passports should update their documents to be confident in the accuracy of their vehicle registration data. Updating the document will also allow for its integration into special applications and enhance the safety of transactions.
New protection technologies for car passports for used vehicles give buyers confidence in the authenticity of documents and the safety of transactions. Thanks to such protective elements as laser engraving, special ink, state symbols, and holograms, it becomes nearly impossible to forge car passports. It is recommended to regularly update car passports to access new protection technologies and ensure the security of transactions.
