How to start

  1. Sign up at app.vouchsafe.id (it’s free!)

  2. Go to Builder > Create a new flow, and choose the Right to work template.

  3. Go to Verifications and select Verify by email.

Vouchsafe will perform steps that would normally have to be done in person:

  • collecting the employee's passport

  • verify that the passport is real

  • make sure it belongs to the employee

You can then review the results from the Verifications tab, and optionally download a PDF version for your own records.

Good to know

  • You don't need to chase applicants. Vouchsafe sends automatic daily reminders until the verification times out (7 days by default)

  • You can get notified by email when an applicant completes their check

Important: Always check the latest government guidance for right to work checks to make sure you meet your legal obligations.

Coming soon: international applicants

Vouchsafe can also verify international applicants who have an eVisa and a share code.
