Overview

What the LEI Verification API does

LEI Verification validates a Legal Entity Identifier code and returns the registered details of the entity behind it.

The Reserve Bank of India requires an LEI for large-value transactions by non-individual entities. Verifying it at onboarding avoids discovering a missing or lapsed identifier at the moment a payment needs to move.
