MCP server for Onfido — global identity verification and KYC.
Onfido is the identity verification layer behind Revolut, N26, Uber, and hundreds of regulated fintechs. One API covers 195+ countries and the full KYC flow: applicant → document → live photo → check (runs verification) → reports.
Second entry in CodeSpar's identity category alongside Unico (BR-first KYC). Pair them: Unico for Brazilian users (CPF + Receita Federal biometric pool), Onfido when the flow touches non-LatAm users.

-> upload_document (front, and back if driving_licence / national_identity_card) -> upload_live_photo -> create_check report_names=["document","facial_similarity_photo","watchlist_standard"] -> retrieve_check (poll until status = complete) -> retrieve_report (for each report id to get the detailed breakdown)
npm install @codespar/mcp-onfido
ONFIDO_API_TOKEN="..." # API token (required, secret)
ONFIDO_REGION="eu" # Optional. 'eu' | 'us' | 'ca'. Defaults to api.onfido.com.
Onfido uses a non-Bearer header format:
Authorization: Token token=<ONFIDO_API_TOKEN>
The server handles this automatically.
| Region | Host |
|---|---|
| Default | https://api.onfido.com |
| EU | https://api.eu.onfido.com |
| US | https://api.us.onfido.com |
| CA | https://api.ca.onfido.com |
All requests target API version v3.6 (current stable).
upload_document and upload_live_photo accept files as base64-encoded strings. Pass the bytes in file, with file_name and content_type:
{
"applicant_id": "a1b2c3...", "type": "passport", "file": " ", "file_name": "passport.jpg", "content_type": "image/jpeg" }
The server wraps it as multipart/form-data before sending.
Note: Onfido increasingly recommends capturing live photos via their SDK rather than API upload. Direct /live_photos upload may be restricted on some accounts — use the SDK flow when in doubt.
