Identity & Compliance tools help you verify who you are transacting with, screen transactions and addresses for risk, and apply compliance policies automatically as transactions move through your workspace. This domain covers counterparty and transaction compliance. It does not cover onboarding or Know Your Customer (KYC) for your own end customers.
Compliance screening
Compliance Screening covers everything that happens during a live transaction: checking a counterparty or address against your chosen risk providers, exchanging required Travel Rule information with the receiving institution, and deciding how to handle the transaction based on the results. Start here if you are configuring what Screening does for a transaction in your Fireblocks workspace.
- Key Concepts: how compliance policies work, and what you can do once a policy is triggered. See Building a Compliance Policy and Transaction Screening Operations.
- Address Registry Screening: checking a counterparty address against Fireblocks' registry of known, verified addresses. See About Address Registry Screening.
- Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and Know Your Transaction (KYT): screening addresses and transactions for blockchain risk, through Chainalysis, Elliptic, or TRM Labs. See About AML/KYT.
- Travel Rule: exchanging required originator and beneficiary information with counterparties, exchanges, and payment providers. See About Travel Rule.
- Bring Your Own Screening: pausing a transaction for your own verdict, based on whatever review process or provider you choose, before it continues. See About Bring Your Own Screening.
Compliance tooling
Compliance Tooling covers tools and reference material that support your compliance program. Start here if you are managing the Address Registry directly, or looking for Fireblocks' own compliance and security documentation.
- Address Registry: configure your legal entities, export attestations for your addresses and lookup counterparty addresses. See About Address Registry.
- Cyber and Operational Resilience (COR) Compliance Package: Fireblocks' security reporting and legal documentation package. See COR Compliance Package.
- Fireblocks' own compliance policy: how Fireblocks screens for Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) sanctions on its side. This is informational only; there is no setting for you to configure. See Fireblocks' Compliance Policy (OFAC Sanctions).
Developer portal
If you are integrating these features into your own systems rather than configuring them in the Fireblocks Console, see AML policies, Travel Rule policies, Address Registry, and Bring your own screening check on the Developer Portal.
Availability varies by capability: some are Console-only today, some are API-only, and some support both. Each article in this section states which applies.
