Country brief

How identity verification works in Belarus.

The fraud surface and the frameworks an engineering or compliance lead needs before scoping an integration.
Fraud landscape
Belarus faces cross-border identity fraud and sanctions-evasion risk tied to diaspora financial corridors, tech-sector outflows, and the complex interplay of EU and US sanctions regimes. Didit scores 200+ real-time fraud signals on every session, face morph, replay, injection, document tampering, device intelligence, IP geolocation.
Compliance frameworks
  • Law on Measures to Prevent Legalization of Proceeds of Crime No. 165-Z 2003 (as amended 2021)
  • FATF 40 Recommendations
  • MONEYVAL evaluation framework
  • Law on Personal Data Protection of the Republic of Belarus 2008
  • EU Sanctions (Council Decisions and Regulations on Belarus, 2020–2024)

FAQ

Common questions about Belarus.

What is Didit?

Didit is infrastructure for identity and fraud, the platform we wished existed when we were building products ourselves: open, flexible, and developer-friendly, so it works as a real part of your stack instead of a black box you integrate around.

One API covers verifying people (KYC, know your customer), verifying businesses (KYB, know your business), screening crypto wallets (KYT, know your transaction), and monitoring transactions in real time, on a stack built to be:

  • Fast, sub-2-second p99 on every session
  • Reliable, in production with 1,500+ companies across 220+ countries
  • Secure, SOC 2 Type 1, ISO 27001, GDPR-native, and formally attested by Spain's financial regulator as safer than verifying someone in person

The footprint underneath: 14,000+ document types in 48+ languages, 1,000+ data sources, and 200+ fraud signals on every session. The Didit infrastructure dynamically learns from every session and gets better every day.

What does Didit ship?

Didit is the infrastructure layer for identity and fraud. One Application Programming Interface (API), 25+ composable modules across four product lines:

  • User Verification (KYC, know your customer), Identity Document Verification, liveness, face match, Anti-Money Laundering (AML) screening, Internet Protocol (IP) analysis. $0.33 per full bundle.
  • Business Verification (KYB, know your business), registry, Ultimate Beneficial Owner (UBO), officers, entity AML, plus a linked KYC session per UBO.
  • Transaction Monitoring, real-time rule engine, case management, Suspicious Activity Report (SAR) workflow.
  • Wallet Screening (KYT, know your transaction), on-chain wallet risk at $0.15 per check, or bring your own screening provider and run it inside Didit.

Compose any module into a workflow with the visual no-code builder, ship in 5 minutes, 500 verifications free every month, forever.

What does it cost? Is anything actually free?

500 verifications free every month, forever, on every account. No credit card. No sales call. No expiry.

Above the free tier, every module has a public per-success price on didit.me/pricing, $0.33 per full KYC bundle, $0.15 per Identity Document Verification, $0.15 per Wallet Screening, $0.20 per Anti-Money Laundering (AML) Screening, $0.10 per liveness, $0.05 per face match, $0.03 per Internet Protocol (IP) analysis.

Pay-as-you-go, no minimums, no overage surprises. Volume discounts kick in automatically as you grow.

Which Belarusian regulator covers identity verification on a digital onboarding?

Two primary regulators sit on every Belarusian identity-verification flow:

  • NBRB (National Bank of the Republic of Belarus), supervises banks and payment institutions. Sets Customer Due Diligence requirements under the Law on Measures to Prevent Legalization of Proceeds of Crime No. 165-Z 2003 (as amended 2021).
  • DFM (Department of Financial Monitoring), Belarus's national FIU within the State Control Committee. Receives Suspicious Activity Reports from all obligated entities.

Note: for cross-border compliance, EU sanctions (Council Decisions on Belarus) and OFAC SDN designations apply, Didit screens all of these in the same AML layer.

Is there a government database validation API for Belarusian identities?

No, Belarus does not currently expose a public government consumer API open to third-party integrators for civil registry or passport cross-checks.

Didit compensates with three complementary validation layers:

  • Document OCR + chip read, every field on the Пашпарт or ID-карта is extracted and validated against ISO/ICAO templates.
  • Biometric liveness + Face Match 1:1, the selfie is confirmed live and matched against the document portrait.
  • AML screening, the extracted name is screened across 1,300+ global and Belarusian watchlists including EU sanctions, OFAC SDN, UN, MONEYVAL, and DFM designations.
How does Didit handle the EU and OFAC sanctions exposure on Belarus-linked users?

Belarus is subject to significant EU and OFAC sanctions regimes. Didit's AML screening layer covers all of this in a single API call:

  • EU Consolidated Financial Sanctions List, Belarus-specific designations under Council Decisions (2020–2024), covering senior officials, state entities, and designated individuals.
  • OFAC Specially Designated Nationals (SDN), US Treasury designations on Belarusian persons and entities.
  • UN Security Council Consolidated Sanctions List, global multilateral sanctions.
  • Domestic DFM designations, Belarus's own SAR-derived AML list.

Each hit is severity-scored and surfaced in the compliance console with the originating list and reason code, same webhook, same JSON report, zero additional integration work.

How long does it take to integrate Didit for Belarus?

5 minutes to a working sandbox, a weekend to a production flow.

  • Sign up at business.didit.me, grab an API key, call POST /v3/session/ with a workflow_id, done.
  • AI-agent path: paste the integration prompt at docs.didit.me/integration/integration-prompt into Claude Code, Cursor, or any coding agent.
  • Five SDKs share the same session model: Web, iOS, Android, React Native, Flutter.

The first 500 verifications every month are free, forever.

What does Belarus verification cost end-to-end?

Per-module public pricing, pay only for what runs on the session:

  • ID Verification, $0.15 per document check.
  • Passive Liveness, $0.10. Active Liveness, $0.15.
  • Face Match 1:1, $0.05. Face Search 1:N, free.
  • AML Screening, $0.20 per check. Ongoing AML, $0.07 per user / year.

The full KYC bundle is `$0.33`, same price worldwide. 500 verifications free every month, no credit card.
