Detect tampered and forged documents in United Kingdom
The UK faces document fraud across identity, immigration, financial, and tenancy categories. Forged payslips, council tax bills, and right-to-rent documents are common in mortgage and rental applications. Post-Brexit immigration processes have increased demand for verifying BRPs and visa-related documents.

Frequently asked questions
How do I verify a UK P60 or P45 for a mortgage application?
Upload the document to TamperCheck and it runs 200+ forensic checks on font rendering, HMRC format patterns, arithmetic consistency, and metadata provenance. The system names the exact field that was edited - such as the tax code, pay figure, or NI number - and returns a verdict within seconds.
Can AI detect fake UK documents like payslips and council tax bills?
Yes. TamperCheck analyses font weight, kerning, glyph rendering, and compression history for each OCR field. It catches edited payslips, forged council tax bills, tampered P60 forms, and fake BRPs. Findings are resolved to the individual field, not a document-level risk score.
What UK documents does TamperCheck support?
TamperCheck supports P60, P45, council tax bills, BRPs, and Certificates of No Impediment, alongside universal types like bank statements, passports, utility bills, payslips, and tenancy agreements. The same forensic pipeline covers all 100+ document types with no per-type configuration.
What are the signs of a fake UK payslip?
Look for font inconsistencies between the pay figures and the rest of the document, arithmetic mismatches between gross pay, tax, and NI deductions, missing or altered employer PAYE references, and metadata showing editing software. TamperCheck automates all of these checks and returns per-field findings.
How do I verify documents for right-to-rent checks in the UK?
Upload identity and address documents to TamperCheck for automated forensic analysis. The system checks passports, BRPs, bank statements, and utility bills for tampering, returning an AUTHENTIC or TAMPERED verdict with specific findings. Share the report alongside your right-to-rent documentation as evidence.
