Dynamic Digital Verification (DDV) – Keeping New Zealand Safe
At the heart of our vetting process lies DDV – Dynamic Digital Verification, an advanced risk assessment tool designed to screen international student applicants for potential involvement in illegal or harmful activities. Each applicant undergoes a unique digital background verification, which helps identify connections to:
- Illegal Immigration
- Serious Drug-Related Activities
- Terrorism
- Paedophilia
- Sports Hooliganism
- Fraud & Counterfeiting
- Violent Conduct
- Illegal Gang Affiliations
- Other Extremist Activities
By leveraging this robust verification system, Visa Vetting Solutions plays a key role in protecting New Zealand’s institutions and communities.

DDV Removes the Hidden Risks in Verifying Individuals
- Traditional verification can only be conducted if the person of interest has a record.
- With a high proportion of global crime being unreported and/or unresolved, a similarly high proportion of criminals have no records that might be ‘matched’.
- This means that millions of individuals are applying for roles, clearances, or admissions in sensitive environments, especially from high-risk territories, which may not trigger any concern that would otherwise require more detailed attention by the decision-making authorities.
DDV is completely different
Traditional Verification
- Profiles are matched against official watchlists, indexes & criminal databases.
- Analysis through historical data, based on previously recorded convictions & clear indicators.
- Can take days to complete, and only produces a result if a digital record already exists.
- Criminal records checks are often confined to databases in the country of origin only.
Dynamic Digital Verification
- Searches millions of open-source data sets for indicative patterns of criminal activities or affiliation.
- Data is accessed in real time.
- Immediate responses are provided with detailed reports, even when no official records exist.
- Biometrically matches the individual in question to global data.
