Detect tampered and forged documents in Singapore

Singapore faces document fraud across employment, financial, and identity categories. Forged NRIC identity cards, payslips, and academic certificates are submitted for employment passes and loan applications. The high volume of foreign workers creates a large attack surface for fabricated employment documents.

Frequently asked questions

How do I verify a Singapore NRIC is real or fake?

TamperCheck validates the photo zone, font rendering, and security-overlay patterns on NRIC identity cards. It runs 200+ forensic checks and returns a verdict within seconds, naming the exact field that was edited rather than a generic risk score.

Can AI detect fake Singapore documents like payslips and employment passes?

Yes. TamperCheck uses font analysis, issuer-sealed field validation, and compression artifact detection. It catches forged NRIC cards, tampered payslips, fake academic certificates, and altered employment pass documents. Each finding names the specific field that was changed.

What Singapore documents does TamperCheck support?

TamperCheck supports Singapore NRIC alongside universal types like bank statements, passports, payslips, academic certificates, employment contracts, and utility bills. One integration covers every document type and country with no per-type setup required.

What are common signs of a tampered Singapore payslip?

Look for font inconsistencies between the pay figures and the rest of the document, arithmetic mismatches between gross pay, CPF contributions, and net pay, missing or altered employer UEN numbers, and metadata showing editing software. TamperCheck automates all of these checks.

How do I verify Singapore documents for an employment pass application?

Upload NRIC, academic certificates, and employment documents to TamperCheck for automated forensic analysis. The system returns an AUTHENTIC or TAMPERED verdict with per-field findings. Share the report with MOM or the prospective employer as evidence.
