How to Check a Document of the Nation
A specimen certificate taken apart, part by part; the Record Code in its three blocks; the four standings; and the three ways to check, from the quickest to the most thorough, with how far to go for each. On the web the certificate unrolls, a phone reads its Edge Mark, and a box tests any code’s shape and sends it to the Register’s own check page.
