# NFC Scan

The NFC Scan module reads the secure [NFC](https://developer.incode.com/docs/glossary#nfc-scan) chip embedded in ICAO 9303-compliant travel documents, such as e-passports. It then returns the document holder's data, including the chip's portrait image.

For an overview of this module and how it works, see [NFC Scan](https://developer.incode.com/docs/nfc).
