## KYC/AML Compliance - Frequently Asked Questions

### What is KYC verification?

KYC (Know Your Customer) verification is a regulatory process where financial institutions confirm customer identity, assess risk, and screen against sanctions and watchlists before opening accounts or processing transactions.

### What is the difference between KYC and AML?

KYC is the process of verifying customer identity and understanding their risk profile. AML (Anti-Money Laundering) is the broader set of laws and controls designed to prevent financial crime. KYC is a core component of any AML compliance program.

### What documents are required for KYC?

Standard KYC documentation includes a government-issued photo ID (passport, driver's license, or national ID) and proof of address. High-risk or enhanced due diligence (EDD) cases may require additional documentation.

### How long does KYC verification take with AI?

AI-powered KYC platforms reduce verification time from days to seconds. Incode's system completes the average KYC check in 4 seconds with a 98% first-try pass rate, reducing manual review queues significantly.
