idsmith

Validate and generate checksum-correct IBANs, personal IDs, bank accounts, credit cards, SWIFT/BIC, company IDs, driver's licenses, tax IDs, passports, LEI codes, and EU VAT numbers.

Available as a Rust crate, Python package, and Node.js module — all powered by the same Rust core.

Quick Example

// Rust
use idsmith::{credit_cards, personal_ids, tax_ids, passports, driver_licenses, vat_ids, lei_codes};

let valid = credit_cards().validate("4152839405126374");
let ssn_ok = personal_ids().validate("US", "446-72-2445").unwrap_or(false);
let pan_ok = tax_ids().validate("IN", "ABCDE1234F");
let passport_ok = passports().validate("US", "123456789");
let dl_ok = driver_licenses().validate("US", "A123456789012");
let vat_ok = vat_ids().validate("DE123456789");
let lei_ok = lei_codes().validate("529900BOTDR0SE98AR17");

# Python
import idsmith

idsmith.CreditCard.validate("4152839405126374")      # True
idsmith.PersonalId.validate("US", "446-72-2445")      # True
idsmith.TaxId.validate("IN", "ABCDE1234F")            # True
idsmith.Passport.generate(country="DE")
idsmith.DriverLicense.validate("US", "A123456789012")  # True
idsmith.VatId.validate("DE123456789")                  # True
idsmith.LegalEntityId.validate("529900BOTDR0SE98AR17") # True
iban = idsmith.generate_iban("DE")

// Node.js
const { CreditCard, PersonalId, TaxId, Passport, DriverLicense, VatId, LegalEntityId, generateIban } = require('idsmith');

CreditCard.validate('4152839405126374');      // true
PersonalId.validate('US', '446-72-2445');     // true
TaxId.validate('IN', 'ABCDE1234F');           // true
const passport = Passport.generate('DE');
DriverLicense.validate('US', 'A123456789012'); // true
VatId.validate('DE123456789');                // true
LegalEntityId.validate('529900BOTDR0SE98AR17'); // true
const iban = generateIban('DE');
