Detect tampered and forged documents in India
India faces widespread document fraud across identity, income, education, and property categories. Forged Aadhaar cards, PAN cards, salary slips, and mark sheets are routinely submitted for KYC, loans, and overseas visa applications.

Frequently asked questions
How do I check if an Aadhaar card is real or fake?
TamperCheck analyses the photo zone, QR code consistency, font rendering, and security-overlay patterns on Aadhaar cards. It runs 200+ forensic checks and returns a verdict within seconds, naming the exact field that was edited - such as the date of birth, address, or photograph - rather than a generic risk score.
Can AI detect fake Indian documents like PAN cards and Form 16?
Yes. TamperCheck uses font analysis, arithmetic reconciliation, issuer-sealed field validation, and metadata provenance checks. It detects tampered PAN cards, edited Form 16 tax documents, forged salary certificates, and fake GST certificates. Each finding is resolved to the individual field, not just a document-level score.
What Indian documents does TamperCheck support?
TamperCheck supports Aadhaar card, PAN card, Form 16, GST certificate, marksheet, voter ID, relieving letter, loan sanction letter, NOC letter, and fixed deposit receipt, alongside universal types like bank statements, passports, payslips, and utility bills. One integration covers every supported document type with no per-type setup.
What are common signs of a tampered Indian salary certificate?
Check for font inconsistencies between the salary figure and the rest of the document, arithmetic mismatches between gross and net pay, missing or altered employer letterhead elements, and metadata that shows editing software. TamperCheck automates all of these checks and returns per-field findings within seconds.
How do I verify Indian documents for a loan or visa application?
Upload the document to TamperCheck and receive a forensic verdict within seconds. The report names the exact fields that were edited, with findings tied to specific regions of the document.
