Abstract

Self-sovereign identity systems and methods for identification documents are disclosed herein. An example method includes transmitting data obtained from a near-field communications (NFC) chip of an object to the service provider. The data can include identifying information for an owner of the object. The method can include receiving a user identity packet from the service provider that is generated by the service provider based on verification of an identity of the owner and validity of the NFC chip, storing the user identity packet on a computing device, receiving a request from a first requesting device or service for the data stored on the NFC chip of the object and transmitting the user identity packet from the computing device to the first requesting device or service instead of the data.
