Register user

Registering a user links their wallet address, OnchainID identity, and jurisdiction in the identity registry. The registry entry lets DALP resolve the wallet during mint and transfer checks. It does not, by itself, make the user eligible for every regulated asset. Eligibility also depends on the asset's required claim topics, trusted issuers, country rules, and transfer restrictions.

KYC evidence stays off-chain with the verifier and operator workflow. DALP records the result on the user's OnchainID as claims, such as KYC or AML topics, plus the issuer that signed them. When a regulated token checks a mint or transfer, DALP resolves the wallet through the identity registry, reads the required claims, verifies that each claim issuer is trusted for the matching topic, and then evaluates the configured compliance modules. Missing claims, claims from issuers that are not trusted for the required topic, or failed country and transfer rules can block eligibility.

For the underlying identity model, see Claims and identity.

Prerequisites

• Identity Manager role or equivalent permissions.
• A user with a wallet and OnchainID created during onboarding.
• A confirmed jurisdiction for the user. DALP registration routes use ISO 3166 alpha-2 country codes, and the dapp submits the selected country on-chain.
• Wallet verification for the signing user. The dapp asks for the wallet approval method before it submits the registration transaction.

What registration changes

Registration writes the wallet-to-identity relationship into the active identity registry. The user moves from a pending identity state to a registered identity state after the transaction is confirmed and indexed.

Registration is therefore the identity-registry step in a broader compliance flow. Trusted issuer claims, KYC review, country restrictions, and transfer approval rules still control whether a specific asset can be minted or transferred to the user.

Before you register

Review these details before submitting the transaction:

• The selected user is the intended holder or operator account.
• The wallet address shown on the user profile is the wallet you want to bind to the OnchainID.
• The OnchainID address belongs to the selected user.
• The country selection reflects the user's legal residence or incorporation, not a temporary location.
• Any required KYC, KYB, AML, sanctions, accreditation, or other off-chain review is complete before a trusted issuer issues claims.

Compliance impact

Token mints and transfers

• Non-registered identities are blocked from regulated asset transactions.
• Registered identities are eligible only when the token's compliance rules pass.
• An identity-verification rule can require one claim topic, such as KYC, or a logical expression such as KYC and AML.
• The required claim must be present on the user's OnchainID and issued by a trusted issuer authorised for that topic.
• Different assets can require different claim topics, trusted issuers, country rules, or transfer approvals.

Compliance modules

• Identity verification modules check registry enrolment and required claim topics.
• Country and transfer-restriction modules can apply additional rules after identity lookup.
• A single failing module blocks the mint or transfer.
• Compliance reporting tracks enrolled, verified, and blocked users.

Verification process

• KYC, KYB, AML, sanctions, accreditation, and document review happen off-chain before a verifier issues a claim.
• The on-chain claim records the verification result, topic, issuer, signature, and supporting reference data.
• Only issuers trusted for the relevant topic should issue claims used for transfer eligibility.
• Multiple verifications can be issued per enrolled identity when different assets require different topics.

Operational checks

• Register users after onboarding creates the wallet and OnchainID.
• Verify the user's legal residence or incorporation evidence before selecting the country.
• Keep the off-chain evidence and approval record in your operating workflow.
• Review duplicate or stale user records before registration.
• Use the identity recovery workflow when the registered wallet is lost or compromised. A normal profile edit does not replace the registered wallet binding.
