Creating an account for an entity means submitting company information and company documents for KYB, as well as beneficiaries and details about them for KYC. This is a regulatory obligation.
Before creating the entity account, the user must accept the required terms. See Terms and Conditions.

​
1. Create the entity account

The creation of the entity account is done by calling this API endpoint:

Create an entity

 The following information needs to be provided:
  • Company details
  • Personal data about every ultimate beneficial owner (UBO)/representative of the company
  • Company documents. See the list of required documents
  • (Optional) A list of authenticators to register a beneficiary’s passkey to their device
The entity will receive an account_id and an entity_id. Every beneficiary/representative of the entity will have a user_id.
When creating an entity, the user creating it must add themselves as one of the beneficiaries/representatives.Please refer to the related endpoint page for more details about the requirements.

2. KYB verification

Byzantine and Bridge will verify the entity’s existence, ownership structure, and the identities of all UBOs and representatives of the company. Both Bridge and Byzantine may ask for additional details during this process. Throughout the KYB process, the root user receives email notifications at every stage with updates on their status.
This process usually takes 24-48 hours.
