> ## Agent Instructions
> HEVN has two products and they authorize money differently. Self-serve (the General tab): the person who owns the email holds the only key and signs for themselves. Whitelabel (the Whitelabel and REST API tabs): the integrator's backend holds a developer key, signs on behalf of client accounts it created, and HEVN co-signs. Never mix the two models in an answer.
> Use HEVN's terms exactly. A rail is a bank route a client can request. A virtual account (bnk_) is an opened rail. Account details are what a payer needs in order to wire money, and arrive in a field named requisites. A client is an account the integrator created; the business behind it is the integrator's customer. A contact is a saved destination; a beneficiary is the party at the far end of a fiat payout. Every departure of money is a payout, to a bank account or to a wallet alike.
> Never name a banking partner. Say 'a licensed banking partner'.
> There are no published fee rates, spreads or minimums. Prices come from a quote on a specific payment; direct pricing questions to HEVN rather than inventing numbers.
> The whitelabel API is at /dapi/v1 and takes a developer-key session plus an X-Hevn-Account header. The CLI uses an app API key in X-Api-Key. They are different credentials and neither works on the other surface.
# KYB fields
> Every field of the KYB document, its accepted values, the document slots, and how to read a missing[] path.
Every field of the KYB document, with its accepted values. The document is the body of `PUT /dapi/v1/client/kyb` and the `document` block of `GET /dapi/v1/client/kyb`; both use the same shape, and both take the client id in `X-Hevn-Account` rather than in a path. [Onboarding](/whitelabel/onboarding) is the flow that fills it.
"Required" below means completion is refused without it — the field appears in `missing[]` until it is set. Everything under "Optional detail" is accepted, never demanded by the gate, and routinely asked for by a reviewer instead: sending what you already hold is how an RFI is avoided rather than answered.
## `company`
| Field | Type | Required | Notes |
| -------------------------- | ------------------- | -------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

| `identityDocuments` | array of `{type, number, issuingCountry}` | Identification issued **to the company**, where the jurisdiction issues any. Metadata only — see below. |
### `identityDocuments`
Both `company` and `people[]` take this array. It carries the metadata off an identity document; the file itself is still a `POST /dapi/v1/documents` upload filed into a `documents[]` slot, and neither replaces the other.
| Field | Type |
| ---------------- | --------------------------------- |
| `type` | enum |
| `number` | string, 1–200, exactly as printed |
| `issuingCountry` | ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 |
### `company.address` and `people[].address`
Both addresses take the same object. Four of its fields are required; `state` and `addressLine2` are not.
| Field | Type | Required |
| --------------- | ------------------ | -------- |
| `streetAddress` | string, 1–200 | yes |
| `addressLine2` | string, 1–200 | no |
| `city` | string, 1–200 | yes |
| `state` | string, 1–200 | no |
| `zip` | string, 1–200 | yes |
| `country` | ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 | yes |
Write `state` as the ISO 3166-2 subdivision including its country prefix — `US-IL`, not `IL` and not `Illinois`.
## `people[]`
At least one person is required: a document with an empty roster reports `people` as missing. Give each person at least one role — `ownershipPercentage`, `hasControl`, `isDirector` or `isSigner` — or they are in the graph without being anything in it.
| Field | Type | Required | Notes |
| --------------------- | ----------------------------- | ------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `key` | 1–64 of `A-Z a-z 0-9 . _ : -` | `key` or `id` | Your own stable handle for this person. HEVN derives their id from it, which is what makes the write idempotent. |
| `id` | UUID | `key` or `id` | Addresses a person who already exists in the client's graph. Takes precedence over `key`. A person with neither is refused. |
| `firstName` | string, 1–200 | no | |
| `middleName` | string, 1–200 | no | |
| `lastName` | string, 1–200 | no | |
| `dateOfBirth` | `YYYY-MM-DD` | no | |
| `email` | string, 1–200 | no | |
| `phone` | E.164 | yes | |
| `address` | object | yes | |
| `taxIdCountry` | ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 | yes | The country whose tax authority holds this person's number. Declared, never derived from the address. |
| `taxId` | string, 1–200 | US only | A US tax resident owes an SSN as `XXX-XX-XXXX`. |
| `ownershipPercentage` | decimal string, > 0 and ≤ 100 | no | |
| `hasControl` | boolean | no | |
| `isDirector` | boolean | no | |
| `isSigner` | boolean | no | |
| `documents` | array of `{slot, uploadId}` | yes | One `proof_of_address` per person. |
These six are optional and, like the company's, are read rather than demanded:
| Field | Type | Notes |
| ------------------- | ----------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `title` | string, 1–200 | The office held, for example `Director`. |
| `birthCountry` | ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 | Country of birth. |
| `nationalities` | array of ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 | Every nationality held. |
| `country` | ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 | Country of residence. Distinct from `taxIdCountry`, which is declared, and from `address.country`. |
| `linkedinUrl` | string, 1–2000 | The person's public LinkedIn profile. |
| `identityDocuments` | array of `{type, number, issuingCountry}` | Passport or ID metadata, as above. |
## Enums
Send one of the listed members. An unlisted value is refused at the boundary with `422 invalid_enum_value`, carrying `details.field` and the accepted set in `details.allowed` — nothing is written.
`llc` · `corporation` · `s_corporation` · `c_corporation` · `partnership` · `limited_partnership` · `sole_proprietorship` · `nonprofit` · `trust` · `cooperative` · `dao` · `foundation` · `other`
`technology` · `finance` · `healthcare` · `retail` · `e_commerce` · `manufacturing` · `real_estate` · `consulting` · `hospitality` · `education` · `transportation` · `entertainment` · `agriculture` · `construction` · `professional_services` · `crypto_web3` · `other`

`<10` · `10-50` · `50-200` · `200-1,000` · `1,000+`
These members are not identifiers. Send them exactly as printed, punctuation included.
`MONEY_SERVICES` · `LENDING_BANKING` · `OTC_FX_CRYPTO_BROKERAGE` · `HOLD_CLIENT_FUNDS` · `INVESTMENT_SERVICES` · `SAFE_DEPOSIT_BOX` · `PRECIOUS_METALS_STONES_JEWELRY` · `NICOTINE_TOBACCO` · `MARIJUANA` · `PHARMACEUTICALS` · `THIRD_PARTY_PAYMENT_PROCESSING` · `ADULT_ENTERTAINMENT` · `WEAPONS_FIREARMS_EXPLOSIVES` · `GAMBLING`
The one upper-case enum in the API.
`passport` · `id_card` · `drivers_license` · `driver_license` · `residence_permit` · `government_id` · `state_or_provincial_id` · `visa`
Two of these break the `snake_case` rule the rest of the API keeps: `highRiskActivities` is upper-case and `txPerMonth` carries digits and punctuation. Match them character for character.
## Document slots
A slot is a named place a document goes. You upload a file, get a `doc_…` id back, and file it into a slot with `{"slot": "...", "uploadId": "doc_..."}` — on the document's own `documents[]` for company papers, on a person's `documents[]` for theirs.
Every client needs these five on the company:
| Slot | What it is |
| ------------------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------- |
| `certificate_of_incorporation` | The registrar's proof the company exists. |
| `corporate_structure` | The ownership chart, down to the people. |
| `director_structure` | Who the directors are. |
| `proof_of_address` | A recent document showing the company's registered address. |
| `source_of_funds` | Evidence behind the `sourceOfFunds` answer. |
The jurisdiction adds to that list:
| `company.country` | Extra slot |
| ----------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `US` | `tax_identification_document` — the IRS letter that assigned the EIN. |
| `AE` | `vat_registration` — the FTA VAT/TRN registration certificate. |
And every person needs one:
| Slot | What it is |
| ------------------ | -------------------------------------------------- |
| `proof_of_address` | A recent document showing where that person lives. |
Other slots exist and are accepted — `passport_front`, `national_id`, `articles_of_association`, `bank_statement`, `ubo_declaration`, `power_of_attorney` and more — and a reviewer may ask for one in an RFI. Send an unknown slot and the write answers `422 document_type_unsupported` with the full accepted list in `details.allowed`.
## Reading a `missing[]` path
Every entry is a path into the document you sent. Fix it there and write again.
| Path | Means |
| ---------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------ |
| `company.flowOfFunds` | A company field is empty. |
| `company.address.zip` | A required address field is empty. |
| `people` | The roster is empty. Add at least one person. |
| `people[0].taxIdCountry` | A field on the first person in the document is empty. |
| `people[0].documents.proof_of_address` | That person's slot has nothing in it. |
| `documents.certificate_of_incorporation` | A company slot has nothing in it. |
| `graph.entities..phone` | The gap belongs to an entity the flat document does not own. |
The index in `people[0]` is the person's position in the `people` array of `GET /dapi/v1/client/kyb`, not the order you happened to send. Read the document back and index into that.
## Complex ownership
The flat document models one company owned directly by people; `hasIntermediateEntityOwnership` is where you declare that it does not. A chain with holding companies in it is written through HEVN's entity-graph routes, which are outside this API and available on request. The two models coexist: the flat document only ever replaces the people it created, and never touches an entity added another way — a write that would drop one answers `409 kyb_roster_conflict` with `details.entityIds`. Gaps belonging to those entities are the `graph.entities..` rows above.
The envelope, and every slug the API can answer with.
