Identity Verification Questionnaire

The Identity Verification questionnaire is the data-exchange contract of the reliance flows: through it, you submit the outcome of the identity verification you have already performed on a customer, so the platform does not run its own IDV.

It exists in two variants with identical questions:

QuestionnaireAnswered forUsed in
Identity VerificationThe PersonKYC Onboarding - reliance flow
Corporate identity VerificationThe Business Contact (Individual)KYB Onboarding

In the corporate flow, every other linked Individual answers the shorter Corporate ID document verification questionnaire instead, consisting of the document type and an ID document upload.


Structure

The questionnaire contains 28 questions in five groups. As with any questionnaire, each answer references the question's value - see Questionnaire and Response for the general mechanism.

Supporting documents

Six optional questions of type multiple_documents. Each expects the IDs of previously uploaded documents whose category matches the question's value:

Question valueContent
id_documentCopies of the identity document.
residence_permitResidence permit, where applicable.
selfieSelfie captured during your verification.
cdd_reportYour customer due diligence report.
periodic_reviewYour most recent periodic review. Expected when the verification_date is more than 2 years in the past - the periodic review demonstrates that the customer relationship has been kept under review since the original verification.
undeterminedAny other supporting document.

Answering

  1. Upload the files first - POST /persons/{person_id}/documents (or POST /individuals/{individual_id}/documents in the corporate flow) - using the matching category for each file.
  2. Submit a single response containing the answers and the document IDs.
note

Submit the questionnaire once, complete. The verification outcome and personal data groups are always required; the ID document, QES Bank Ident, and supporting-document groups depend on the verification method you used - and on the verification's age: when the verification_date lies more than 2 years in the past, include a periodic_review document.
