Chrome Adds Autofill for Passports, Licenses, and Vehicle Registrations

On Monday, Google released a significant upgrade for Chrome that will alter how you manage those tiresome web forms. It also said that its Chrome browser’s auto-fill function can now fill in your driver’s license, passport, automobile registration, and more.

The convenience factor of Chrome which has increased with its ability, can now automatically fill in your addresses, passwords, and payment details thanks to this enhancement.

The passport and driver’s license number, car information (such as the license plate or VIN), and other details are automatically filled in on web pages for desktop users who have enabled advanced autofill.

It’s most recent attempt to maintain Chrome’s competitiveness in a crowded browser market where AI-powered alternatives are gaining traction is the rollout, which is available worldwide and in all languages as of Monday

Google claims that Chrome’s increased comprehension of intricate forms and a wide range of formatting specifications will increase accuracy online.

Chrome only saves autofill data when you allow it to, according to the tech giant, and it encrypts this data to keep it safe. Chrome will also ask you to confirm before filling in saved information on your behalf.

Beginning Monday, all languages will have access to these new upgrades worldwide. Chrome expects to handle many more data types in the upcoming months, according to the firm.

You are familiar with the procedure. You arrive at a government portal, enter your licence number, and begin searching. Glove box, wallet and that closet folder. Those times are coming to an end. This eliminates a daily friction point that stealthily eats up time, not simply shaving seconds.

With the influx of new AI browsers, Google has been enhancing Chrome with new features to make it more useful. This announcement was made on Monday. 

This is what you will see on your desktop today. Chrome’s improved autofill now manages driver’s license information, passport numbers, and car information such as VINs and license plates when you fill out online forms.

Imagine logging through a tax or visa form, purchasing a foreign ticket, or renewing your registration online. Eliminate the need to search through your passport for that lengthy series of numbers. The days of searching through your glove box when a tab is out are over.

Since it integrates with Chrome’s pre-existing autofill configuration, its a natural feeling being than to be forced. The browser continues to request confirmation before filling out any information, giving you complete control over when and where your private information is displayed.

Gemini in Chrome was previously only available to Google AI Pro and Google AI Ultra subscribers, but a few weeks ago, Google made it available to all Mac and Windows desktop users in the United States. In addition, the tech giant stated at the time that it would soon introduce agentic capabilities to Chrome, integrate its AI Mode search function into the address bar, introduce new Gemini features, employ AI to counteract scams created by AI, implement automated password resets, and more.

Other minor changes that Chrome has recently introduced include a new tool that automatically turns off browser notifications for websites you haven’t used recently and a function that facilitates switching between Google accounts for work and personal use.

You may start saving time on government forms and trip reservations right away with the improved autofill tool, which is currently accessible to desktop users worldwide. Just look for Chrome’s recognisable autofill prompt the next time a form requests your passport or driver’s license information, and you will notice the option to save this information.

Google will likely maintain Chrome’s competitiveness with more intelligent automation and useful intelligence as AI browsers continue to push the boundaries. The conclusion is that Chrome is focussing on solutions that truly benefit users rather than pursuing dazzling AI only for show. Most people will employ that type of AI without hesitation.
