Ryanair offers two booking verification options: Express Verification using GetID facial recognition for a £/€0.59 fee, and Standard Verification online for free. Each method requires specific personal information and documentation.
If you have been asked to verify your booking, you have the following two options.
1. Express Verification uses facial recognition technology provided by our partner GetID. We know that not everyone is comfortable with facial recognition tools so we offer another booking verification option as outlined below. To complete the process, you will need to:
- Provide your booking reference and passenger name;
- Log into or sign-up to a myRyanair account;
- Pay the £/€0.59 fee to cover the cost of GetID’s facial recognition technology;
- Provide a photograph of your travel documentation (i.e., passport or identification card);
- Take a photo of your face to verify the travel documentation which you provided;
- Carry out a liveness check of your face by performing some actions you will be asked to do (you will require a device with a camera for this); and
- Provide your phone number.
You will receive an instant confirmation where your booking has been successfully verified using the Express Verification Process. Once verification is complete, you can access and manage your booking yourself.

2. Standard Verification involves:
- Providing your booking reference and passenger name;
- Logging into or signing-up to a myRyanair account;
- Uploading a photo of your signature;
- Uploading a picture of your passport or national identification card; and
- Providing your phone number
Standard Verification is provided free of charge. You will receive an instant confirmation where your booking has been successfully verified using the Standard Verification Process. Once verification is complete, you can access and manage your booking yourself.

If you do not complete online verification, you will be unable to manage your booking and will be unable to check-in online. In such circumstances you might be required to check-in at the airport for a fee. Our Table of Fees is available here.
