KYC/KYB Requirements Diagram
KYC — Individual customer
Split into two diagrams: a compact overall flow, and a left-to-right jurisdiction router for the identity step (branches stack vertically, so each is readable). Spain and the EEA share identity rules and are grouped; every other jurisdiction has its own document, liveness, database-validation and extra-field requirements.

KYB — Corporate customer
Requirements are largely uniform across jurisdictions; the one jurisdiction-dependent branch is the shareholder / beneficial-ownership evidence, which depends on whether a public beneficial-ownership register exists.

Note: In the KYB flow, every UBO (25%+ ownership) and director completes the individual KYC flow above — including the jurisdiction-specific routing — before the corporate case can be approved.
