# Submit Representative KYC Data

`POST /entities/{entity_id}/representatives/{representative_id}/kyc`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.meow.com/v1`
- URL: `https://api.meow.com/v1/entities/{entity_id}/representatives/{representative_id}/kyc`
- Auth: API key in header `x-api-key`
- TypeScript: <https://skmtc.dev/meow/apis/meow-api/docs/entities/:entity_id/representatives/:representative_id/kyc/post.ts> (a function with typed inputs; its response is checked against the schema)

Submit identity (KYC) data for a representative you added. Verification runs server-side; poll the entity onboarding status endpoint for the result. Use this when you hold the representative's identity details; otherwise mint a verification link for them to self-verify.

## Path parameters

- `representative_id` string, required: The representative, as returned in `representatives` on `GET /entities/{entity_id}`.
- `entity_id` string, required: The entity being onboarded.

## Request body

- OnboardingKycIdentity
  - `first_name` string, required: Legal first name.
  - `last_name` string, required: Legal last name.
  - `date_of_birth` string, date, required: ISO 8601 full-date in the format `YYYY-MM-DD` (per [IETF RFC 3339](https://xml2rfc.tools.ietf.org/public/rfc/html/rfc3339.html#anchor14)).
  - `id_number` string, password, nullable: Government ID number matching `id_type`. For `us_ssn` use nine digits, with or without dashes (123-45-6789 or 123456789); for `us_ssn_last_4` use the last four digits; for non-US ID types provide the number as issued. Formatting characters are stripped before verification. Required when the representative's country issues an ID type we can verify, and must be omitted when it does not (e.g. the United Kingdom, which has no supported ID type).
