Every Liechtenstein detector in detail
IBAN
A bank account identifier. Validation: the registered length for the country and the ISO 13616 modulus 97 check. Valid example: LI21 0881 0000 2324 013A A; the same shape that fails is LI21 0881 0000 2324 013A B.
Passport / identity card number
An identity document number. Validation: the pattern only, with no checksum or structural validator. It needs one of 11 keywords within 48 characters before the value, such as ausweisnummer, document number, id card, id no. Valid example: R123456.
Phone number
A telephone number in the national format. Validation: between 7 and 15 digits, the range an international number can have. Valid example: +423 235 12 34.
Postal code
A postal code, which identifies a place rather than a person on its own. Validation: the pattern only, with no checksum or structural validator. It needs one of 8 keywords within 48 characters before the value, such as plz, post code, postal code, postcode. Valid example: 9490.
AHV number
A social security or social insurance number. Validation: the pattern only, with no checksum or structural validator. It needs one of 7 keywords within 48 characters before the value, such as ahv, ahv nr, ahv-nummer, insurance number. Valid example: 123.456.789.

How Maskflare masks Liechtenstein identifiers
Detections are replaced with a token such as mf_mask_d7e0 before the request goes to the AI provider, and with response restoration turned on the real value is put back in the answer. The other actions are redact, partial, hash, format-preserving encryption, generalize, alert and block.
- Protect now, Finance - Protect now, Healthcare and Developer: mask (a reversible token) when Liechtenstein is a primary country.
- Monitor first: alert (counted, forwarded unchanged) when Liechtenstein is a primary country.
Compliance profiles that include the Liechtenstein pack: GDPR - EU/EEA.
Limits worth knowing
- A passing checksum shows that a value is well formed, not that it was issued to a real person. The examples on this page pass for that reason and are not real.
- 3 of the 5 detectors here match on pattern alone (Passport / identity card number, Postal code and AHV number), so they can match text that merely has the same shape.
- Detectors read the text of the request. A value inside an image is found only after OCR, and a value split across lines is not one match.
- Names, addresses and free-text details are handled by other packs. This page is limited to the Liechtenstein identifiers.
