Google Chrome can now autofill your passport and driver’s licence details

Google Chrome

Google is taking Chrome’s autofill powers to the next level. The browser can now automatically fill in government ID details like your passport, driver’s licence, and vehicle registration — a major upgrade from just addresses, passwords, and payment info.

Announced on Monday, the new capability is part of Chrome’s expanded Enhanced Autofill feature. Desktop users can now have their passport number, driver’s licence, and even vehicle details such as their licence plate or VIN automatically entered into web forms that request them.

Google says Chrome can now handle more complex and varied form formats across the web, improving the accuracy of its autofill system. The update is rolling out globally in all languages starting this week, with plans to support even more data types in the coming months.

Security remains a focus. Google emphasises that Chrome only saves this sensitive information with user consent and protects it through encryption. Before filling in any saved ID details, Chrome will also ask for confirmation — adding an extra layer of safety.

The move comes as Google aims to make Chrome more useful and competitive in a new wave of AI-powered browsers. Recent updates include Gemini integration for all Mac and Windows desktop users in the US, new AI-based anti-scam tools, automatic password resets, and a future “AI Mode” for smarter browsing.

Chrome has also quietly introduced smaller quality-of-life features — like automatically silencing notifications from inactive sites and making it easier to switch between personal and work accounts.

With this upgrade, Chrome is positioning itself as the most context-aware and convenient browser yet — one that saves you time filling out tedious forms while keeping your identity data secure.
