Country brief

How identity verification works in Greece.

The fraud surface and the frameworks an engineering or compliance lead needs before scoping an integration.
Fraud landscape
Two pressures shape Greek identity fraud: deepfake and synthetic-Ταυτότητα attacks on the wave of Bank of Greece-licensed neobanks and MiCA-licensed crypto exchanges, and cross-border forgery pressure as Greek banks onboard residents from the broader Eastern Mediterranean. Didit scores 200+ real-time fraud signals on every session, face morph, replay, injection, document tampering, device intelligence, IP geolocation.
Compliance frameworks
  • Law 4557/2018 (AML Act)

  • MiCA
  • DORA
  • GDPR / Law 4624/2019

FAQ

Common questions about Greece.

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.

How is Didit different from a single-product Know Your Customer (KYC) vendor?

Most identity vendors sell one slice, a KYC check, an Anti-Money Laundering (AML) list, a wallet screen. Didit ships the infrastructure underneath all of them, and the gap shows up on six axes:

  • Pricing. Public price on every module, $0.33 for a full KYC, 500 verifications free every month, no minimums, no contracts. Single-product vendors hide six-figure minimums behind a sales call.
  • Access. Sandbox in one click, self-serve from day one, production keys on signup. Single-product vendors gate the sandbox behind a contract, months to evaluate.
  • Developer experience. Public docs, a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Claude Code and Cursor, and native Software Development Kits (SDKs) for Web, iOS, Android, React Native, and Flutter. Integrate in 5 minutes with an AI agent or in a working afternoon by hand.
  • User experience. Highest pass rates in the market, sub-2-second end-to-end inference, country-specialised capture flows, 48+ languages out of the box.
  • Flexibility. One /v3/ Application Programming Interface (API) composes 25+ modules across KYC, Know Your Business (KYB), Transaction Monitoring, and Wallet Screening (KYT, know your transaction). A KYB session spawns a linked KYC for every Ultimate Beneficial Owner (UBO); a flagged transaction spawns a step-up KYC remediation, same session, same webhook contract, same audit trail. Single-product vendors sell one shape of KYC and stop there.
  • AI-era fraud. 200+ real-time fraud signals scored on every session, deepfake, injection, synthetic-ID, document forgery, face-morph, device intelligence, replay. Single-product vendors treat deepfake and injection detection as roadmap items, not defaults.

Common in fintech and crypto, the same architecture fits marketplaces, iGaming, mobility, and any vertical where you need to know who someone is and what they are doing.

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 Greek regulator covers identity verification on a digital onboarding?

Four sit on top of every Greek identity-verification flow:

  • Τράπεζα της Ελλάδος (Bank of Greece), central bank and prudential supervisor for banks, payment institutions, electronic-money issuers, and insurers. Sets remote-onboarding requirements under the AML framework.
  • Επιτροπή Κεφαλαιαγοράς (Hellenic Capital Market Commission, HCMC), securities supervisor and Crypto-Asset Service Provider (CASP) authority under the Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA).
  • Αρχή Καταπολέμησης της Νομιμοποίησης Εσόδων (Hellenic FIU), Greece's Financial Intelligence Unit. Receives Suspicious Activity Reports under Law 4557/2018.
  • Αρχή Προστασίας Δεδομένων Προσωπικού Χαρακτήρα (HDPA), supervises the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and Law 4624/2019.

Didit ships the hosted flow + the audit log + the watchlist coverage to satisfy all four at the same time, same POST /v3/session/ workflow, same JSON report, same SOC 2 Type 1 + ISO/IEC 27001 evidence pack.

Does Didit cross-check Greek identities against authoritative registries?

Yes, via three Database Validation services on POST /v3/database-validation/.

  • `grc_credit_bureau` ($1.02, ~75% coverage), Credit Header data from a Greek Credit Bureau. The deepest authoritative-source check, useful for credit underwriting and full Customer Due Diligence.
  • `grc_utility` ($1.05), Greek utility records cross-checked for proof-of-address.
  • `grc_consumer` ($1.10, ~40% coverage), commercial lead-generation database for first-pass identity match.

All three services are documented at docs.didit.me/api-reference/database-validation/greece/. The Νέα Ταυτότητα and the legacy Δελτίο Ταυτότητας are both captured + OCR-parsed + chip-read on the same session via the Identity Document Verification module.

Is Didit ready for a MiCA Crypto-Asset Service Provider authorisation in Greece?

Yes. The Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA) is enforced by the Hellenic Capital Market Commission (HCMC) in Greece, every Crypto-Asset Service Provider (CASP) must run full Customer Due Diligence under Law 4557/2018.

Didit covers the full stack on one workflow:

  • Identity Document Verification + Active Liveness + Face Match 1:1 for the tier-1 onboarding check.
  • `grc_credit_bureau` Database Validation for the authoritative-source identity check.
  • AML Screening ($0.20 per check) against the global pool plus Greek regulatory watchlists (Bank of Greece Sanctions, HCMC Warnings, Hellenic Parliament PEPs).
  • Wallet Screening (KYT) at $0.15 per check for the on-chain exposure assessment MiCA + the Transfer of Funds Regulation require.
  • Ongoing AML monitoring ($0.07 per user / year) for the periodic-review obligation under Law 4557/2018.
How long does it take to integrate Didit in Greece?

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 that wires ID Verification + Active Liveness + Face Match + AML + Greek credit-bureau database, done.
  • AI-agent path: paste the integration prompt at docs.didit.me/integration/integration-prompt into Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Devin, Aider, or Replit Agent. The agent provisions the application, builds the workflow, wires the webhook, and runs a smoke test.
  • Five SDKs share the same session model: Web, iOS, Android, React Native, Flutter.

The first 500 verifications every month are free, forever, pilot the full Greece stack at zero cost before flipping production traffic.

Which language does the hosted verification flow use for Greek users?

Greek, auto-detected from the user's browser / device locale. The hosted UI ships in 48+ languages; Greek users land on the Greek flow by default. English, Albanian, German, and Russian are also live on the same flow for cross-border or expat users.

The document-recognition layer is decoupled from the UI layer, capture works in any language, and the admin console can be set independently to whichever language your compliance team prefers.

What does the Greece 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.
  • `grc_credit_bureau`, $1.02 per successful query.
  • `grc_utility`, $1.05 per successful query.
  • `grc_consumer`, $1.10 per successful query.

The full KYC bundle (Identity + Passive Liveness + Face Match + IP Analysis) is `$0.33`, same anchor price worldwide, no Greece surcharge. 500 verifications free every month, no credit card. Volume discounts auto-apply above the free tier; Enterprise adds a custom Master Services Agreement (MSA) and data-residency choice.
