# Supported Document Types

The Dynamsoft MRZ Scanner supports three ICAO Machine Readable Travel Document (MRTD) formats. The Machine Readable Zone (MRZ) is the striped region at the bottom of a travel document that encodes identity information for optical character recognition.

> [!NOTE]
> If you need support for other MRTD types, the SDK can be customized. Contact the [Dynamsoft Support Team](https://www.dynamsoft.com/contact/).
