# Verification checks

Learn about the different verification checks supported by Stripe Identity.

Stripe Identity currently supports five types of verification checks: document, selfie, ID number, address, and phone.

Each verification check requires different information from your user, has different coverage, and has a different verification flow. After you’ve integrated one check, you can add another with minimal changes to your integration.

# Address (Invite only)


Address checks provide a way to verify a user’s name, date of birth, and address. Stripe uses a combination of third-party data sources such as credit agencies or bureaus, utility or government-issued databases, and others to verify the provided address.

To add address checks to your app, see [Creating a VerificationSession](https://docs.stripe.com/identity/verification-sessions.md#create).
