Wyoming Driver License & ID Card PDF417 API

Reading Wyoming Card Barcodes in Real Workflows

Wyoming rental counters near national parks handle summer surges of visitors from every state, while energy employers onboard crews remotely. Both create rushed, low-quality captures. PDF417 error correction recovers some damage, but an application should never invent identity values when the barcode cannot be decoded.

One API for Wyoming Licenses and ID Cards

Wyoming cards are issued by the Wyoming Department of Transportation Driver Services. Licenses and identification cards carry the same AAMVA DL/ID PDF417 barcode on the back. Send the back image to the StructOCR PDF417 API: it decodes the barcode deterministically, normalizes the jurisdiction to WY, and returns document_kind as driver_license or id_card. Test a non-sensitive sample in the free PDF417 scanner. For the printed front of the card, use the Driver License OCR API.

Where This Workflow Fits

• Park-gateway vehicle rentals: Pre-fill names, dates, and address for park-gateway vehicle rentals and keep final confirmation in your application.
• Energy crew onboarding: Accept both Wyoming licenses and state ID cards, and use document_kind where only a license is acceptable.
• Ranch equipment rental: Send unreadable Wyoming barcodes to a retake or manual review step instead of saving partial identity data.

Decode a Wyoming Card Back

Upload a JPG, PNG, or WebP image of the full card back. Ask for the back of the card to fill most of the frame, with a small margin on every side and no fingers over the barcode.

Prerequisite: A server-side StructOCR API key and a clear image of the complete card back

Illustrative Wyoming ID Card Response
