Professional MRZ Generator
ICAO Document 9303 Compliant System
ICAO 9303 MRZ Generator & Validator
Generate compliant Machine Readable Zone codes for KYC testing, software development, and graphic design mockups.
Tool Instructions: Enter the dummy data below to calculate the correct check-digits. This tool strictly follows ICAO Document 9303 specifications for Type 1 (ID Cards), Type 2, and Type 3 (Passports) machine-readable travel documents.
About This Tool
This MRZ Calculator is designed for developers, QA testers, and graphic designers who need to generate syntactically correct MRZ strings for their projects. Whether you are testing an optical character recognition (OCR) engine or designing a novelty prop for a film production, accurate data structure is essential.
Key Features:
Check-Digit Calculation: Automatically computes the modulo-10 checksums for dates and document numbers.
Multi-Format Support: Compatible with TD3 (Passports), TD1 (ID Cards), and MRV (Visas).
Privacy First: All processing happens client-side. We do not store any data entered in this generator.
How to Use
Select Format: Choose between Passport (TD3) or ID Card (TD1/TD2).
Input Data: Enter the placeholder information (Name, Country, Document Number).
Generate: Click the button to receive the standardized 2 or 3-line code.
Copy & Paste: Use the result in your PSD templates, UI mockups, or software test cases.
What is an MRZ?
The Machine Readable Zone (MRZ) is a section on travel documents where data is encoded so that it can be read by a machine. It contains the document holder’s identity, document number, and check digits to prevent errors.
Why do I need a valid MRZ for Design?
If you are designing a passport template (PSD) or a movie prop, using random characters will make the design look unrealistic. Professional designs require mathematically correct check digits so that the document looks authentic in high-resolution shots.
