validate_identifier
Validate an identifier of a known type
Validate and normalise one identifier whose type you know (format, length, dates and check digits). Returns valid, compact and formatted forms, the checks performed, a reason when invalid, and extracted details where the number encodes them (birth date, sex, holder type). Example: number '784-1990-1234567-1', code 'ae_emirates_id'. Response: result plus data_confidence (high = check-digit algorithm from a public specification; medium = community-documented checksum or pattern-only; low = structure only), estimated_items[], sources[], data_version and a disclaimer (structural validation only — never proof that an identifier is issued or belongs to someone).

list_identifiers
List supported identifier types
Catalogue of the identifier codes this service validates (250+ across 90 countries plus international standards), filterable by country and category. Free. Call it once to find the right code for validate_identifier. Response: result plus data_confidence (high = check-digit algorithm from a public specification; medium = community-documented checksum or pattern-only; low = structure only), estimated_items[], sources[], data_version and a disclaimer (structural validation only — never proof that an identifier is issued or belongs to someone).

detect_identifier
Detect what kind of identifier a value is
Try every validator for the given country plus the international ones and return the types that accept the value, best first (checksum-bearing types rank above pattern-only ones). Use when a document or form field holds a number of unknown type. A match is structural, not proof of type. Example: number '12345678901', country 'KW'. Response: result plus data_confidence (high = check-digit algorithm from a public specification; medium = community-documented checksum or pattern-only; low = structure only), estimated_items[], sources[], data_version and a disclaimer (structural validation only — never proof that an identifier is issued or belongs to someone).

validate_iban
Validate an IBAN
Validate an IBAN (ISO 13616 length, mod-97 and national BBAN rules) and return the country, bank code, branch, bank name and BIC where the bundled registry knows it, SEPA membership, compact and printed forms. Example: 'AE070331234567890123456'. Response: result plus data_confidence (high = check-digit algorithm from a public specification; medium = community-documented checksum or pattern-only; low = structure only), estimated_items[], sources[], data_version and a disclaimer (structural validation only — never proof that an identifier is issued or belongs to someone).

validate_bic
Validate a BIC / SWIFT code
Validate a BIC (ISO 9362): structure, country code, test-BIC flag, bank and branch parts, and the bank name(s) where known. Example: 'EBILAEAD'. Response: result plus data_confidence (high = check-digit algorithm from a public specification; medium = community-documented checksum or pattern-only; low = structure only), estimated_items[], sources[], data_version and a disclaimer (structural validation only — never proof that an identifier is issued or belongs to someone).

validate_phone
Validate and format a phone number
Parse a phone number for any country, say whether it is valid (matches a national numbering-plan pattern) or merely possible, and return E.164, international and national formats, number type (mobile/fixed_line/toll_free…), region, location, original carrier hint and time zones. Example: number '050 123 4567', default_region 'AE'. Response: result plus data_confidence (high = check-digit algorithm from a public specification; medium = community-documented checksum or pattern-only; low = structure only), estimated_items[], sources[], data_version and a disclaimer (structural validation only — never proof that an identifier is issued or belongs to someone).

validate_postal_code
Validate a postal code format
Check a postal/ZIP code against the national format for 158 countries, and say so when the country has no postal codes (UAE, Qatar…). Pattern check only. Example: code '11564', country 'SA'. Response: result plus data_confidence (high = check-digit algorithm from a public specification; medium = community-documented checksum or pattern-only; low = structure only), estimated_items[], sources[], data_version and a disclaimer (structural validation only — never proof that an identifier is issued or belongs to someone).
