What TrustID Right to Work is
TrustID Right to Work checks whether applicants are eligible to work in the UK using digital or physical identity documents. It assesses document validity, identity assurance, and work eligibility, then returns a report showing restrictions and any required follow-up dates. Available routes include digital checks, share-code checks, and physical-document checks, including checks involving out-of-date British passports.
Checks usually return within minutes. The hiring manager is emailed when the PDF report is ready in the web portal, which requires no software or app download. Reports are kept for seven days by default before deletion; the retention period can be extended on request. TrustID says it is certified as a Digital Verification Service Provider for the UK Digital Right to Work Scheme and meets the required medium and high confidence levels. It says it connects with over 50 ATS and HR system providers. Its API can submit checks, receive completion callbacks, and retrieve results and reports, but API integration requires a minimum commitment of 1,000 credits. The pay-per-check plan has a 100-check minimum order.
