What a one-stop consular platform covers
YORI-ID covers the full lifecycle of a consular service: identifying the national, issuing a card, processing their passport application, handling document requests, collecting fees, knowing who is on the territory, steering the whole across a network of missions and reporting to the supervising ministry. Each module can be enabled on its own.
Ten modules, one national record
A consular post often stacks tools that do not talk to each other: a spreadsheet for registration, an outside provider for cards, a paper register for certificates, a cash desk for fees. The same national exists four times, under four spellings.
YORI-ID modules all build on a single record. A card produced, a document issued and a payment collected attach to the same file, whatever the desk or channel the request came through.
Module-by-module rollout
A deployment does not have to be complete to be useful. A mission can open online enrolment alone, measure the effect on its register, then add cards and documents.
| Module | What it replaces | Measurable effect |
|---|---|---|
| Diaspora enrolment | Paper register, per-post spreadsheets | A consolidated, up-to-date national register |
| Consular card | Outside provider, scattered production | Controlled production chain, known issuance time |
| Passport | Counter filing, a case with no news | Fourteen tracked states, from filing to handover |
| Consular documents | Counter requests, paper archives | Traceability and authenticity checking |
| Consular payments | Money orders, cash, bank transfers | Automatic accounting reconciliation |
| Revenue ledger | Manual reconciliation of three sources | One set of accounts, online and counter, exportable |
| Authenticity checking | Visual inspection of the credential by an officer | Signed verdict, face-to-screen check, register of checks |
| Travel declaration | No equivalent scheme | Visiting nationals become reachable |
| Multi-mission network | Manual coordination between posts | Consolidated oversight at ministry level |
| Statistical oversight | Reports compiled by hand at each post | Real-time national consolidation, with no manual returns |

Frequently asked questions
Do all modules have to be deployed?
No. Each module is enabled independently and builds on the same national record. A mission usually opens enrolment first, then cards and documents.
Can data from one module be reused by the others?
Yes, and that is the main point of a one-stop platform: a supporting document provided at enrolment is not requested again for a first document application.
Can an existing register be migrated?
Yes. A migration of existing data — files, spreadsheets, digitised registers — precedes deployment, with de-duplication on whatever identifiers are available.
