Structure of the identity card (CI):

• The first digit indicates the province of birth or registration (1–7).

• The second block of 3 digits, is a sequential number.

• The third block of 5 digits, contains another sequential number that was assigned to each individual.

• You can optionally add a hyphen "-" to divide the blocks.

Structure of the Cedula Jurídica (CEJ):

• Depending on the issuing authority, the identifier often follows an alphanumeric pattern (combining letters and digits) or a full numeric structure, often split with hyphens "-" to divide code blocks.

Example: How to validate IDs through the API?

Remember that you can validate documents through the LP api. See Document Validation service.

Below you can find some examples to validate through our API. You can also test with the examples above. Please note the structure of each ID type (length, dots, hyphen, lowercase/uppercase). To validate Chilean documents through the API, you can add or omit the dots, hyphens, and lowercase/uppercase.

Example: RUT

{
    "document": {
        "id" :"1111111111", 
        "type" :"RUT"
    },
    "country" : "CRI"
}
