Design requirement R2.3: eIDAS

Digital KYC processes involve the customer's identification and a check of the authenticity of the involved documents, and the 5th EU AML Directive accepts electronic ID systems that comply with eIDAS as a legitimate means of identification for KYC procedures. eIDAS imposes requirements on these electronic means of identification, such as compliance with certain security levels (level of assurance) and the cross-border interoperability of systems.

Source paper

This design requirement is proposed by Designing a Framework for Digital KYC Processes Built on Blockchain-Based Self-Sovereign Identity (Vincent Schlatt, Johannes Sedlmeir, Simon Feulner, Nils Urbach, 2022).

Objective 2 - Regulatory compliance

Compliance with regulations is a key objective of the KYC process; the Money Laundering Act (MLA), GDPR, and electronic Identification, Authentication, and Trust Services (eIDAS) are particularly relevant regulations for a digital KYC process.

Designing a Framework for Digital KYC Processes Built on Blockchain-Based Self-Sovereign Identity

The paper derives six design objectives (16 sub-requirements) for an SSI-based eKYC framework and demonstrates how blockchain-based self-sovereign identity can solve KYC challenges without violating data-protection regulation, deriving three nascent design principles that theorize blockchain's role for SSI: use blockchain only for public data, anticipate an ecosystem of various ledgers, and enable decentralization at the edge.
