@ewanm89 @blinry @piko oh, I see where the confusion might be coming from, as OLDER versions of the INE card USED PDF417, however, newer ones use two high-density QR codes on the back, and there's even an official app from the Electoral Authority to read and validate IDs by scanning said codes, which results in the full name and other data of the holder, as well as a color picture.

Here's is a link to both versions of the app. You might find a specimen going around, but after scanning it, it says is invalid. I also tried using the official app WITHOUT any sort internet connection and it worked just fine, meaning the data is indeed contain within those QR codes to the best of my understanding:

Apple App Store: apps.apple.com/mx/app/valida-i

Google Play Store: play.google.com/store/apps/det

Newspaper talking about it and specimen with QR codes: eluniversal.com.mx/nacion/poli

If you want a real ID to be able to scan the codes, PM me and I'll *see what I can do.
