About identity registry

The identity registry is an on-chain system that:

Tracks all verified identities for your organization
Links wallet addresses to identity contracts
Enforces jurisdictional rules

Identity states

State	Description	Can receive assets
Pending Registration	Onboarded but not in registry	No
Registered	In registry, awaiting verification	Depends on rules
Verified	Has required verifications	Yes

Registering users

Access user management

Navigate to Participants > Users. You'll see all users with their name, email, EOA (wallet address), type, identity address, and status.

Select unregistered user

Find and click on a user you want to register. The user details page shows their information, identity contract details, current registration status, and available actions.

Initiate registration

Click Register Identity (top right button) to begin the registration process. This opens the registration flow.

Select jurisdiction

Choose the user's country from the dropdown. Jurisdiction determines applicable regulatory requirements, compliance rules, investment limits, and verification requirements.

Jurisdiction importance

Country selection can be used in compliance rules but doesn't automatically apply specific rules. Choose based on user's legal residence or incorporation, not temporary location.

Click Continue after selecting jurisdiction, review the summary, then click Register identity. Enter your PIN when prompted and wait for blockchain confirmation. The registry contract adds the user's identity to the registry and links it to their wallet address.

Enroll users promptly after onboarding completion
Verify user information before enrollment
Document enrollment decisions for audit

Jurisdiction selection

Use user's legal residence or incorporation
Verify jurisdiction through documentation
Consider tax and regulatory implications
Update if user's status changes

Security considerations

Verify identity before enrollment
Monitor for duplicate enrollments
Audit enrollment activities
Maintain enrollment records

Integration with compliance

Token transfers

Enrolled identities can receive assets (with proper verifications)
Non-enrolled identities are blocked from asset transactions
Different assets may have different enrollment requirements

Compliance modules

Identity verification module checks registry enrollment
Transfer restrictions enforce enrollment requirements
Compliance reporting tracks enrolled vs. non-enrolled users

Verification process

Enrollment is prerequisite for issuing verifications
Verifications can only be added to enrolled identities
Multiple verifications can be issued per enrolled identity
