Service: Proof of life recognition - Audio or video recognition

Responsible organisation: Macau (Local Government)

Every year, approximately 11,000 retired Portuguese citizens who live abroad must demonstrate “proof of life” in order to continue receiving their pension. Now, a pilot project launched by Caixa Geral de Aposentações, a welfare institution for civil servants, aims to simplify the process by allowing pensioners who live abroad to demonstrate the required proof of life via face or voice recognition. The pilot project started in Macau (a former colony that remained under Portuguese administration until 1999), where hundreds of people are already using the system.
