Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements Disclosure and Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block]	'
		NOTE 1	BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
	These statements should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. The operating results and cash flows for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2014, are not necessarily indicative of the results that will be achieved for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2014 or for future periods.
	The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared without audit and reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of financial position and the results of operations for the interim periods. Preparing financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, and expenses. Estimates are used for, but not limited to, the accounting for the allowance for doubtful accounts, impairment costs, depreciation and amortization, sales returns and discounts, warranty costs, uncertain tax positions and the recoverability of deferred tax assets, stock compensation, contingencies and the fair value of assets and liabilities disclosed. Actual results and outcomes may differ from management’s estimates and assumptions. The statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and footnote disclosures, normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP, have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations.
	The balance sheet at December 31, 2013 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements.
	Consolidation
	Effective April 30, 2011, Iveda Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) completed its acquisition of Sole Vision Technologies (dba “MegaSys”), a company based in Taiwan. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and MegaSys (from May 1, 2011 through September 30, 2012). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
	Going Concern
	The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company’s Audit Report on the Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2013 contained a going concern qualification. Since inception, the Company has generated an accumulated deficit from operations of approximately $25.9 million at September 30, 2014 and has used approximately $4.2 million in cash to fund operations through the nine months ended September 30, 2014. As a result, a significant risk exists regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.
	A multi-step plan was adopted by management to enable the Company to continue to operate and begin to report operating profits. The highlights of that plan are:
		⋅	In September 2014, the Company engaged an investment banker to assist in evaluating potential equity financing opportunities in the near term.
		⋅	As approved by the Board of Directors in December 2013 the Company raised approximately $3.6 million through the private placement of convertible debentures and warrants through June 27, 2014 and will continue efforts of this nature throughout the remainder of the fiscal year as deemed necessary.
		⋅	The Board of Directors approved a plan for the Company to engage a financial advisor in connection with a potential capital raise of up to $30 million (“Long Term Financing”).
		⋅	The Company is actively installing its cloud based software platform with certain telecommunications companies in other countries to create a reoccurring licensing revenue model as well as a distribution channel for proprietary video camera hardware in each respective country.
		⋅	The Company intends to continue to participate in industry and vertical tradeshows to launch new products, generate leads, solicit resellers and other sales channels, and identify potential technology partners.
		⋅	In December 2013, Iveda hired Bob Brilon as our Chief Financial Officer and Executive Vice President of Business Development. He has strong ties with the investment community and has extensive experience in mergers and acquisitions, strategic growth planning, and interacting with domestic and foreign institutional investors, which will be instrumental to our market expansion, global distribution of our cloud video hosting platform and services, and raising capital to fund our growth. In February 2014, the board of Directors appointed Mr. Brilon as the Company’s President.
	Concentrations
	Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and trade accounts receivable.
	Substantially all cash is deposited in two financial institutions, one in the United States and one in Taiwan. At times, amounts on deposit in the United States may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limit. Deposits in Taiwan financial institutions are insured by CDIC (Central Deposit Insurance Corporation) with maximum coverage of NTD 3 million. At times, amounts on deposit in Taiwan may be in excess of the CDIC insurance limit.
	Accounts receivable are unsecured, and the Company is at risk to the extent such amount becomes uncollectible. The Company performs periodic credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and generally does not require collateral. US based segment revenue from two customers represented approximately 41% of total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, and two customers represented approximately 92% of total accounts receivable at September 30, 2014. Taiwan based segment revenue from three customers represented approximately 67% of total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, and three customers represented approximately 64% of total accounts receivable at September 30, 2014.
	Intangible Assets
	Intangible assets consist of trademarks and other intangible assets associated with the purchase price allocation of MegaSys. Such assets are being amortized over their estimated useful lives ranging from six months to ten years. Other Intangible Assets are fully amortized as of September 30, 2014. Future amortization of Intangible Assets is as follows:
	Trademarks
	2014		$	5,000
	2015			20,000
	2016			20,000
	2017			20,000
	Thereafter			66,666
	Total		$	131,666
	Fair Value of Financial Instruments
	Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of September 30, 2014. The respective carrying values of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximate their fair values. These financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, convertible notes and amounts due to related parties. Fair values were assumed to approximate carrying values for these financial instruments because they are short term in nature and their carrying amounts approximate fair values or they are receivable or payable on demand.
	Derivative Liabilities
	The Convertible Debentures include both a conversion option and detachable warrants that are being accounted for as derivative liabilities because of anti-dilution provisions, which under US GAAP, prevents them from being indexed to the Company’s stock triggering derivative accounting. The fair value of the conversion option and detachable warrants is carried on the face of the accompanying balance sheet as a Derivative Liability, in current liabilities because the underlying instruments are convertible by the holder at any time until maturity. Any change in fair value of the derivative liability is reported as a gain or loss on derivative liability in the accompanying statement of operations.
	Segment Information
	The Company conducts operations in various geographic regions outside the United States. The operations and the customer base conducted in the foreign countries are similar to the United States operations. The net revenues and net assets (liabilities) for other significant geographic regions outside the United States are as follows:
			Net Revenues		Net Assets (Liabilities)
	US Revenue		$	470,792	$	-3,349,278
	Asia (all of MegaSys)		$	423,224	$	-99,240
	Philippines		$	163,059
	Mexico		$	158,061
	Furthermore, due to operations in various geographic locations, the Company is susceptible to changes in national, regional and local economic conditions, demographic trends, consumer confidence in the economy and discretionary spending priorities that may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s future operations and results.
	The Company is required to collect certain taxes and fees from customers on behalf of government agencies and remit these back to the applicable governmental agencies on a periodic basis. These taxes and fees are legal assessments to the customer, for which the Company has a legal obligation to act as a collection agent. Because the Company does not retain these taxes and fees, the Company does not include such amounts in revenue. The Company records a liability when the amounts are collected and relieves the liability when payments are made to the applicable governmental agencies.
	The Company operates as two reportable business segments in defined in ASC 280, "Segment Reporting." Each business segment has a chief operating decision maker and management personnel which review their business segment’s performance as it relates to revenue, operating profit and operating expenses.

New Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2014 FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-07, Applying Variable Interest Entities Guidance to Common Control Leasing Arrangements. The guidance addresses the consolidation of lessors in certain common control leasing arrangements and is based on a consensus reached by the Private Company Council (PCC).
Under current U.S. GAAP, a company is required to consolidate an entity in which it has a controlling financial interest. The assessment of controlling financial interest is performed under either: (a) a voting interest model; or (b) a variable interest entity model. In a variable interest entity model, the company has a controlling financial interest when it has: (a) the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the economic performance of the entity; and (b) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the entity that could be potentially significant to the entity.
To determine which model applies, a company preparing financial statements must first determine whether it has a variable interest in the entity being evaluated for consolidation and whether that entity is a variable interest entity.
The new guidance allows a private company to elect (when certain conditions exist) not to apply the variable interest entity guidance to a lessor under common control. Instead, the private company would make certain disclosures about the lessor and the leasing arrangement.
Under the amendments in this ASU, a private company lessee could elect an alternative not to apply variable interest entity guidance to a lessor when:
	⋅	The private company lessee and the lessor are under common control;
	⋅	The private company lessee has a leasing arrangement with the lessor;
	⋅	Substantially all of the activity between the private company lessee and the lessor is related to the leasing activities (including supporting leasing activities) between those two companies, and
	⋅	If the private company lessee explicitly guarantees or provides collateral for any obligation of the lessor related to the asset leased by the private company, then the principal amount of the obligation at inception does not exceed the value of the asset leased by the private company from the lessor.
	⋅	If elected, the accounting alternative should be applied to all leasing arrangements meeting the above conditions. The alternative should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented, and is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early application is permitted for all financial statements that have not yet been made available for issuance.
In April 2014 FASB issued ASU No. 2014-08, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity. The amendments in the ASU change the criteria for reporting discontinued operations while enhancing disclosures in this area. It also addresses sources of confusion and inconsistent application related to financial reporting of discontinued operations guidance in U.S. GAAP.
Under the new guidance, only disposals representing a strategic shift in operations should be presented as discontinued operations. Those strategic shifts should have a major effect on the organization’s operations and financial results. Examples include a disposal of a major geographic area, a major line of business, or a major equity method investment.
In addition, the new guidance requires expanded disclosures about discontinued operations that will provide financial statement users with more information about the assets, liabilities, income, and expenses of discontinued operations.
The new guidance also requires disclosure of the pre-tax income attributable to a disposal of a significant part of an organization that does not qualify for discontinued operations reporting. This disclosure will provide users with information about the ongoing trends in a reporting organization’s results from continuing operations.
The amendments in this ASU enhance convergence between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). Part of the new definition of discontinued operation is based on elements of the definition of discontinued operations in IFRS 5, Non-Current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations.
The amendments in the ASU are effective in the first quarter of 2015 for public organizations with calendar year ends. For most nonpublic organizations, it is effective for annual financial statements with fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2014. Early adoption is permitted.

		NOTE 3	CONVERTIBLE DEBENTURES
	From December 12, 2013 through June 30, 2014, the Company sold $3,600,000 in principal amount of three year debentures, convertible at any time into Company common stock at $1.50 per share (subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments as described below). The debentures bear interest at a rate of 9.5% per annum accruing monthly with the first interest payment due after six months and then monthly unless at the option of the Company the interest is added to the principal amount. As of September 30, 2014, $78,860 of related interest has been rolled into principal. Purchasers of the convertible debentures also received warrants to purchase an aggregate of 327,273 shares of Company common stock exercisable for five years at an exercise price of $1.65 (subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments as described below). The Company incurred financing costs in connection with the issuance of the convertible debentures of $260,635 paid in cash and issued warrants to purchase 199,243 shares of common stock; these deferred costs have been capitalized in the accompanying balance sheets, and are being amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method over the 3 year life of the debt and 5 year life of the warrants. The fair value of the conversion option and warrants on the date issued to the debenture holders totaled $141,082, is discounted from the carrying value of the debenture and amortized into interest expense over the 3 year life of the debt and 5 year life of the warrants using the effective interest method. At September 30, 2014, the carrying value of the convertible debentures totaled $3,563,184, net of the $115,676 debt discount. Accrued interest related to the convertible debentures totaled $107,360 (excluding $78,860 rolled into principal). The Company expects to amortize approximately $100,000 into interest expense in fiscal 2015 and 2016, reducing to $65,000 in 2017, $48,000 in 2018 and $4,000 in 2019 reducing the related deferred costs and debt discount. Principal and all accrued interest is due at maturity, but can be repaid at any time with no penalty.
	The fair value of the conversion option and warrants is carried on the face of the accompanying Balance Sheet as derivative liability and totaled $65,264 at September 30, 2014. Any change in fair value of the derivative liability is reported as a gain or loss on derivative liability in the accompanying statement of operations. The Company recognized a gain on the derivative of $59,443and $101,444 respectively, during the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2014.
	Both the debentures and the warrants described above contain anti-dilution provisions, which provide that in the event that the Company issues additional equity securities, other than certain excluded issuances, the conversion price and exercise price of the debentures and warrants, respectively, will be reduced to equal the effective price at which the additional equity securities were deemed issued. Such effective price will be calculated as the quotient obtained by dividing the total number of additional equity securities by the consideration received by the Company for such issuance.
	In addition, purchasers of the debentures and warrants described above were granted certain piggy-back registration rights with respect to the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the debentures and exercise of the warrants, in the event that the company effects a registration of its common stock under the under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”). In the event of a registered offering of the Company’s common stock solely for cash, purchasers of the debentures and warrants may be entitled to include for registration all of the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the debentures and exercise of the warrants. In the event of a registered offering involving an underwriting of the Company’s common stock, purchasers of the debentures and warrants may be entitled to include for registration a portion of the shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the debentures and exercise of the warrants, such portion not to be reduced below 20 percent of the total number of securities to be included in any such registration, divided proportionally among the purchasers of the debentures and warrants.

	Basic EPS is computed by dividing reported earnings available to stockholders by the weighted average shares outstanding. The Company had net losses for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, and the effect of including dilutive securities in the earnings per common share would have been anti-dilutive. Accordingly, all options and warrants to purchase common shares (totaling 9,282,521 potential shares at September 30, 2014) and shares potentially issuable upon conversion of the convertible debenture (totaling 2,452,573 as of September 30, 2014) were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013.

Consolidation, Policy [Policy Text Block]	'
	Consolidation
	Effective April 30, 2011, Iveda Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”) completed its acquisition of Sole Vision Technologies (dba “MegaSys”), a company based in Taiwan. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and MegaSys (from May 1, 2011 through September 30, 2012). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Liquidity Disclosure [Policy Text Block]	'
	Going Concern
	The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern, which contemplates the realization of assets and the liquidation of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company’s Audit Report on the Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2013 contained a going concern qualification. Since inception, the Company has generated an accumulated deficit from operations of approximately $25.9 million at September 30, 2014 and has used approximately $4.2 million in cash to fund operations through the nine months ended September 30, 2014. As a result, a significant risk exists regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. The financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the recoverability and classification of recorded asset amounts or the amounts and classification of liabilities that might result from this uncertainty.
	A multi-step plan was adopted by management to enable the Company to continue to operate and begin to report operating profits. The highlights of that plan are:
		⋅	In September 2014, the Company engaged an investment banker to assist in evaluating potential equity financing opportunities in the near term.
		⋅	As approved by the Board of Directors in December 2013 the Company raised approximately $3.6 million through the private placement of convertible debentures and warrants through June 27, 2014 and will continue efforts of this nature throughout the remainder of the fiscal year as deemed necessary.
		⋅	The Board of Directors approved a plan for the Company to engage a financial advisor in connection with a potential capital raise of up to $30 million (“Long Term Financing”).
		⋅	The Company is actively installing its cloud based software platform with certain telecommunications companies in other countries to create a reoccurring licensing revenue model as well as a distribution channel for proprietary video camera hardware in each respective country.
		⋅	The Company intends to continue to participate in industry and vertical tradeshows to launch new products, generate leads, solicit resellers and other sales channels, and identify potential technology partners.
		⋅	In December 2013, Iveda hired Bob Brilon as our Chief Financial Officer and Executive Vice President of Business Development. He has strong ties with the investment community and has extensive experience in mergers and acquisitions, strategic growth planning, and interacting with domestic and foreign institutional investors, which will be instrumental to our market expansion, global distribution of our cloud video hosting platform and services, and raising capital to fund our growth. In February 2014, the board of Directors appointed Mr. Brilon as the Company’s President.
Concentration Risk, Credit Risk, Policy [Policy Text Block]	'
	Concentrations
	Financial instruments, which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and trade accounts receivable.
	Substantially all cash is deposited in two financial institutions, one in the United States and one in Taiwan. At times, amounts on deposit in the United States may be in excess of the FDIC insurance limit. Deposits in Taiwan financial institutions are insured by CDIC (Central Deposit Insurance Corporation) with maximum coverage of NTD 3 million. At times, amounts on deposit in Taiwan may be in excess of the CDIC insurance limit.
	Accounts receivable are unsecured, and the Company is at risk to the extent such amount becomes uncollectible. The Company performs periodic credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and generally does not require collateral. US based segment revenue from two customers represented approximately 41% of total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, and two customers represented approximately 92% of total accounts receivable at September 30, 2014. Taiwan based segment revenue from three customers represented approximately 67% of total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2014, and three customers represented approximately 64% of total accounts receivable at September 30, 2014.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments, Policy [Policy Text Block]	'
	Fair Value of Financial Instruments
	Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of September 30, 2014. The respective carrying values of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximate their fair values. These financial instruments include cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, convertible notes and amounts due to related parties. Fair values were assumed to approximate carrying values for these financial instruments because they are short term in nature and their carrying amounts approximate fair values or they are receivable or payable on demand.
Derivatives, Policy [Policy Text Block]	'
	Derivative Liabilities
	The Convertible Debentures include both a conversion option and detachable warrants that are being accounted for as derivative liabilities because of anti-dilution provisions, which under US GAAP, prevents them from being indexed to the Company’s stock triggering derivative accounting. The fair value of the conversion option and detachable warrants is carried on the face of the accompanying balance sheet as a Derivative Liability, in current liabilities because the underlying instruments are convertible by the holder at any time until maturity. Any change in fair value of the derivative liability is reported as a gain or loss on derivative liability in the accompanying statement of operations.
Segment Reporting, Policy [Policy Text Block]	'
	Segment Information
	The Company conducts operations in various geographic regions outside the United States. The operations and the customer base conducted in the foreign countries are similar to the United States operations. The net revenues and net assets (liabilities) for other significant geographic regions outside the United States are as follows:
			Net Revenues		Net Assets (Liabilities)
	US Revenue		$	470,792	$	-3,349,278
	Asia (all of MegaSys)		$	423,224	$	-99,240
	Philippines		$	163,059
	Mexico		$	158,061
	Furthermore, due to operations in various geographic locations, the Company is susceptible to changes in national, regional and local economic conditions, demographic trends, consumer confidence in the economy and discretionary spending priorities that may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s future operations and results.
	The Company is required to collect certain taxes and fees from customers on behalf of government agencies and remit these back to the applicable governmental agencies on a periodic basis. These taxes and fees are legal assessments to the customer, for which the Company has a legal obligation to act as a collection agent. Because the Company does not retain these taxes and fees, the Company does not include such amounts in revenue. The Company records a liability when the amounts are collected and relieves the liability when payments are made to the applicable governmental agencies.
	The Company operates as two reportable business segments in defined in ASC 280, "Segment Reporting." Each business segment has a chief operating decision maker and management personnel which review their business segment’s performance as it relates to revenue, operating profit and operating expenses.

New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block]	'
	New Accounting Pronouncements
	In March 2014 FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2014-07, Applying Variable Interest Entities Guidance to Common Control Leasing Arrangements. The guidance addresses the consolidation of lessors in certain common control leasing arrangements and is based on a consensus reached by the Private Company Council (PCC).
	Under current U.S. GAAP, a company is required to consolidate an entity in which it has a controlling financial interest. The assessment of controlling financial interest is performed under either: (a) a voting interest model; or (b) a variable interest entity model. In a variable interest entity model, the company has a controlling financial interest when it has: (a) the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect the economic performance of the entity; and (b) the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits of the entity that could be potentially significant to the entity.
	To determine which model applies, a company preparing financial statements must first determine whether it has a variable interest in the entity being evaluated for consolidation and whether that entity is a variable interest entity.
	The new guidance allows a private company to elect (when certain conditions exist) not to apply the variable interest entity guidance to a lessor under common control. Instead, the private company would make certain disclosures about the lessor and the leasing arrangement.
	Under the amendments in this ASU, a private company lessee could elect an alternative not to apply variable interest entity guidance to a lessor when:
		⋅	The private company lessee and the lessor are under common control;
		⋅	The private company lessee has a leasing arrangement with the lessor;
		⋅	Substantially all of the activity between the private company lessee and the lessor is related to the leasing activities (including supporting leasing activities) between those two companies, and
		⋅	If the private company lessee explicitly guarantees or provides collateral for any obligation of the lessor related to the asset leased by the private company, then the principal amount of the obligation at inception does not exceed the value of the asset leased by the private company from the lessor.
		⋅	If elected, the accounting alternative should be applied to all leasing arrangements meeting the above conditions. The alternative should be applied retrospectively to all periods presented, and is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014, and interim periods within annual periods beginning after December 15, 2015. Early application is permitted for all financial statements that have not yet been made available for issuance.
	In April 2014 FASB issued ASU No. 2014-08, Presentation of Financial Statements (Topic 205) and Property, Plant, and Equipment (Topic 360): Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity. The amendments in the ASU change the criteria for reporting discontinued operations while enhancing disclosures in this area. It also addresses sources of confusion and inconsistent application related to financial reporting of discontinued operations guidance in U.S. GAAP.
	Under the new guidance, only disposals representing a strategic shift in operations should be presented as discontinued operations. Those strategic shifts should have a major effect on the organization’s operations and financial results. Examples include a disposal of a major geographic area, a major line of business, or a major equity method investment.
	In addition, the new guidance requires expanded disclosures about discontinued operations that will provide financial statement users with more information about the assets, liabilities, income, and expenses of discontinued operations.
	The new guidance also requires disclosure of the pre-tax income attributable to a disposal of a significant part of an organization that does not qualify for discontinued operations reporting. This disclosure will provide users with information about the ongoing trends in a reporting organization’s results from continuing operations.
	The amendments in this ASU enhance convergence between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). Part of the new definition of discontinued operation is based on elements of the definition of discontinued operations in IFRS 5, Non-Current Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations.
	The amendments in the ASU are effective in the first quarter of 2015 for public organizations with calendar year ends. For most nonpublic organizations, it is effective for annual financial statements with fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2014. Early adoption is permitted.
