# (7/30/26 Draft Version) 0x1202 - Age Verification for ISO 18013-5

The host uses this command to start Age Verification through mobile document transaction.

The sequence of events for transactions with device (mDOC Reader) enabled is roughly as follows.

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
**Command 0x1202** is a subset of <mark style="color:red;">**Command 0x1201**</mark>.  It only allows a request item, Age over 18, 21 or 25. It only supports ISO 18013-5 specification. The rest of the features are the same.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
The device sends a response in the format below, and waits for the mDOC Holder (Apple, Android or other phones) to present a Data Engagement method, either QR Code or NFC. The data exchanged during the Data Engagement phase will be used to generate multiple keys for the encryption/decryption of mDOC messages. The ephemeral key generation algorith is defined in ISO-IEC-18013-5.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
After the mDOC Holder presents data engagement method, the device sends <mark style="color:red;">**Notification 0x0101 - Transaction Information Update**</mark> to report the Data Engagement status. If Data Engagement phase has completed successfully, then go to the next step to handle Data Retrieval phase. Else, exit with failure.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
The device will connect to the mDOC holder through BLE connection. The device will build the “mdoc request” message based on the settings of the command string below. The mDOC Holder will send back the “mdoc response" to the device. The device will decode the CBOR encoded response message.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
The device will authenticate the “mdoc response" message with a pre-loaded certificate. The device will verify the SHA-256 hash of all the response items to validate the Data integrity. If the security validation has completed successfully, the device will send the results to the host through <mark style="color:red;">**Notification 0x0101**</mark>. Otherwise, the device will send a failure message through <mark style="color:red;">**Notification 0x0101**</mark>.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Host may set up the A4 TLVs to enable/disable/select the proper Audio Cue during operation.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://developer.magtek.com/api-and-command-reference/7-30-26-draft-version-scra-dynafamily-programmers-manual/7-30-26-draft-version-commands/7-30-26-draft-version-read-mobile-document-command-group-0x12nn/7-30-26-draft-version-0x1202-age-verification-for-iso-18013-5.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
