# Digi Yatra Plans International Trials, Adds Driving Licence Access 2026-08-06T18:02:19+00:00 | Business & Economy | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet Digi Yatra is working to open its airport identity service to Indian nationals flying abroad, Times Now Digital reports. The Digi Yatra Foundation plans to integrate passport-based verifiable credentials and test international use cases requiring global interoperability. The platform currently serves domestic travel and accepts Aadhaar-based credentials. It has also launched a driving licence-based credential through DigiLocker, giving users another way to enter airports. Siddharth Sharma, the foundation’s Chief Information and Innovation Officer, said Digi Yatra stores no user database on its cloud. Data remains on the traveller’s phone until consent is given for a journey, and the airport purges it within 24 hours of take-off. He said the system uses limited Aadhaar details, including name, number, gender and date of birth. ## Coverage - timesnownews.com Tags: airport technology, data privacy, Digi Yatra, digital identity, international travel Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/digi-yatra-plans-international-trials-adds-driving-licence-access/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
