Google is testing a Digital Credential API in Chrome on Android that allows websites to securely request verified identity information (e.g., driver’s licenses, passports) from mobile wallets via the IdentityCredential/CredMan system, with support for ISO mDoc and W3C verifiable credentials. Users must approve requests and can share only necessary attributes, and Google aims to curb ecosystem-scale abuse; availability timing remains unspecified.
