The operator

Your organisation on the record

Every Passport names an operator: your organisation's ECZ-ID Business Passport, the Parent. It starts as the ECZ-ID Business Passport — Declared — FREE, and it is the only tier on the record that organisation verification (VERIFIED or ASSURED) strengthens.

DECLARED

Every organisation starts with the ECZ-ID Business Passport — Declared — FREE

A DECLARED record states what your organisation says about itself, with the date it said it. Your organisation's ECZ-ID Business Passport — Declared — FREE is created with its first family Passport. It is free, and there is no payment step.

What DECLARED means

Self-declared organisation identity. Not independently verified. It is the honest floor, published with its date so a reader can weigh it for themselves.

What it is already enough for

Holding every free Passport in every family, publishing its record, adding bindings, and being resolved by anyone. No verification is required to hold an identity.

Optional

Parent VERIFIED and ASSURED

Independent verification of the organisation behind your Passports. VERIFIED suits production use; ASSURED is the higher-assurance posture for larger or more sensitive estates. Paying opens ECZ-ID's checks, and the record shows the tier only after they pass — payment alone changes nothing on it.

The boundary

It verifies your organisation. It never verifies the subject of any child Passport, and it never changes an ECZ-ID.

Included free: Your organisation's ECZ-ID Business Passport — Declared — FREE is the Parent every Passport starts from, created for you if your organisation has none.

The boundary that matters most

Verifying the organisation does not verify the subject

A VERIFIED or ASSURED Parent verifies your organisation. It does not verify the plugin.

This is the distinction a reader is most likely to collapse, so the record keeps them apart: the Parent’s assurance state and the child’s are two separate fields, and a machine reading the record sees them separately too. A VERIFIED Parent raises confidence in who is answering for the plugin. It says nothing about the plugin itself.

Where next
