New Zealand's Department of Internal Affairs has delivered new digital identity rules with ‘greater choice and control’

2025-07-22  Ian Fleming

The new Digital Identity Services Trust Framework rules will support a wider range of documents, including photo IDs, licences and qualifications and allow digital credentials to be presented online. They will also clarify that digital wallets should not just display credentials on a screen, but also support secure, real-time verification to keep information safe and private. Digital credentials must also be checked to make sure they are real.
