Even in the specific case of citizenship docs, there are several examples of where information extraction works like a charm. The most obvious application are public and legal sector. Law firms and government agencies use databases that can be populated faster when personal information is transferred automatically. Moreover, many cases of naturalization and/or registering citizenship are time-sensitive. Since document automation saves time, then it’s a simple equation. Aside from these two most common examples, certificates of citizenship can be found in some HR processes – such as corporations hiring employees abroad and supporting green card/visa applications – as well as educational institutions.

The platform supports common file types, including PDF, DOCX, XLSX, PNG, JPG, TIFF, and emails. After data extraction, data appears in a file, ready to be downloaded as CSV or XLSX or safely imported into the internal processing system of your choice through API or Zapier.

The exact data and format of a certificate of citizenship can vary between countries and government agencies, but those legal documents usually contain universally required information such as citizen’s full name, date of birth, citizenship status, certificate number, date of issuance, parents’ names, seal & signature and sometimes photographs. All this data can be pulled fully automatically with Alphamoon’s online platform.
