Emirates ID Card Reader Guide

Use this guide when QBM is configured to read Emirates ID information through a supported card reader.

Overview

Some QBM installations can read Emirates ID data through a connected reader. This helps users capture identity information more accurately where company procedures require it.

Use carefully: Emirates ID information is personal information. Users must follow company privacy policy and local legal requirements.

Select A Reader

When more than one reader is available, QBM can show a list of detected readers. Select the correct reader and click OK. If no reader appears, Windows or the reader driver may not detect the device.

Using The Card Reader

  1. Connect the approved card reader to the workstation.
  2. Open the QBM screen that supports Emirates ID reading.
  3. Insert or tap the Emirates ID card according to the reader type.
  4. Select the reader if QBM asks for one.
  5. Review the captured information before saving the record.

Privacy And Security

  • Read Emirates ID information only when it is required for the business process.
  • Do not share screenshots that show full identity details unless company policy allows it.
  • Do not use another user's login to read or save identity information.
  • Report incorrect or unexpected identity data to a supervisor before saving.
