Country brief

How identity verification works in Liechtenstein.

The fraud surface and the frameworks an engineering or compliance lead needs before scoping an integration.
Fraud landscape
Liechtenstein's private-banking and VASP sector faces sophisticated shell-company beneficial-ownership fraud, cross-border deepfake attacks on digital-onboarding flows, and elevated PEP risk from its significant international clientele. Didit scores 200+ real-time fraud signals on every session, face morph, replay, injection, document tampering, device intelligence, IP geolocation.
Compliance frameworks
  • Due Diligence Act (Sorgfaltspflichtgesetz, SPG, 1996, as amended 2022)
  • Token and TT Act (TVTG, Gesetz über Token und VT-Dienstleister, 2019)
  • Liechtenstein Data Protection Act (DSG) + GDPR (EEA application)
  • EU AMLD6, applied via EEA Agreement
  • MiCA (Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation, applicable under EEA agreement)
  • EU Regulation 2019/1157 (chip ID cards, harmonised format)

  • 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.

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:

  • Pricing. Public price on every module, $0.33 for a full KYC, 500 verifications free every month, no minimums, no contracts.
  • Access. Sandbox in one click, self-serve from day one, production keys on signup.
  • Developer experience. Public docs, MCP server, and native SDKs for Web, iOS, Android, React Native, and Flutter. Integrate in 5 minutes.
  • User experience. Highest pass rates in the market, sub-2-second inference, 48+ languages.
  • Flexibility. One API composes 25+ modules across KYC, KYB, Transaction Monitoring, and Wallet Screening.
  • AI-era fraud. 200+ real-time fraud signals on every session.
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, $0.20 per AML Screening, $0.10 per liveness, $0.05 per face match.

Pay-as-you-go, no minimums, no overage surprises.

Which Liechtenstein regulator covers identity verification on a digital onboarding?

Three authorities govern every Liechtenstein identity-verification flow:

  • Financial Market Authority Liechtenstein (FMA), the integrated regulator for banks, investment firms, VASPs, and fund managers. Sets Customer Due Diligence requirements under the Due Diligence Act (Sorgfaltspflichtgesetz, SPG, 1996, as amended 2022).
  • FIU Liechtenstein, operates under the SPG. Receives Suspicious Activity Reports and is a member of the Egmont Group of FIUs.
  • MONEYVAL, Council of Europe FATF-style body. Liechtenstein is a member subject to periodic mutual evaluation against FATF 40 Recommendations.

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

Does Didit support Liechtenstein's Token and TT Act (TVTG) VASP KYC requirements?

Yes. Liechtenstein's Token and TT Act (TVTG, 2019) is one of Europe's most advanced VASP frameworks, requiring full KYC/AML due diligence for token services, wallet services, and exchange services licensed by the FMA.

Didit covers the full stack on one workflow:

  • Identity Document Verification + Active Liveness + Face Match 1:1 for the tier-1 onboarding check.
  • AML Screening ($0.20 per check) against the global pool plus Liechtenstein watchlists, FIU Liechtenstein SAR register, FMA enforcement notices, EU/OFAC/UK sanctions, MONEYVAL findings.
  • Ongoing AML monitoring ($0.07 per user / year) for the SPG periodic-review obligation.
  • All outputs comply with the Due Diligence Act (SPG) and EU AML Directives as applied via EEA agreement.
How long does it take to integrate Didit in Liechtenstein?

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, done.
  • AI-agent path: paste the integration prompt at docs.didit.me/integration/integration-prompt into Claude Code, Cursor, or any AI coding agent.
  • 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 Liechtenstein stack at zero cost.

What does Liechtenstein 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 (Identity + Passive Liveness + Face Match + IP Analysis) is `$0.33`, same anchor price worldwide. 500 verifications free every month, no credit card. Volume discounts auto-apply above the free tier.
