Conditional Step: Upload Parent Entity documents (if applicable)

If a layered ownership structure exists and a Parent Entity (corporate associate) has been added, additional document uploads may be required.

This step is only necessary where a Parent Entity forms part of the ownership or control structure of the onboarding company.

Document requirements for Parent Entities are model-dependent and may vary based on the assigned due diligence framework.

A) Upload Parent Entity (company-level) documents

POST
/corporates/parent-entities/documents

Use this endpoint to request pre-signed URLs for Parent Entity corporate documents, where required.

You must provide:

corporateAssociateId (returned when the Parent Entity was created)

corporateExternalReference(reference of the onboarding request)

documentType

noOfDocuments

contentType

Accepted document types include:

Certificate of Incorporation

Articles of Association

List of Directors

Structure Chart

The response returns a list of pre-signed URLs, one per requested document.

Each URL:

Is valid for 10 minutes

Allows one file upload

Accepts files up to 20 MB

Important

Under full-document due diligence models (e.g., Non-Reliance and Semi-Reliance), Parent Entity corporate documents are typically required.

Under streamlined models, Parent Entity corporate documents may not be required at submission stage. However, risk-based review still applies, and additional documentation may be requested if necessary.

B) Upload Parent Entity associate documents

If the Parent Entity includes UBOs, Directors, or controlling individuals, their identity documents must also be uploaded.

Use the associate document endpoint:

POST
/corporates/associates/documents

When calling this endpoint for a Parent Entity associate:

Pass the returned uboId in the associateId field

Provide the required identity document details (idType, idContentType)

Include address document details where applicable

The process mirrors the upload flow for primary associates.

Each generated pre-signed URL:

Is valid for 10 minutes

Allows one upload

Accepts files up to 20 MB

Identity documentation for controlling individuals remains subject to compliance validation regardless of model.

Final note

If a Parent Entity exists:

All required Parent Entity and associated individual documents must be uploaded before finalisation.

Requirements depend on the assigned due diligence model and ownership structure.

Applications may be escalated to a full-document review if risk thresholds are triggered.
