What is Mainland China KYC and KYB verification?
Mainland China KYC and KYB verification is the process of confirming that a Chinese individual or company is genuine and accurately represented, by checking them against China's official authorities rather than against documents alone.
Foreign banks, insurers, and platforms need this to onboard Mainland customers and counterparties compliantly, and it is precisely the data that sits behind licensed, official sources most global vendors cannot reach.
It splits into two parts, both run at the source:
- Individuals (KYC): matching a national ID, name, date of birth, and face to the Ministry of Public Security record.
- Companies (KYB): confirming the registered name, Unified Social Credit Code, legal representative, and standing against SAMR, with corporate bank-account verification through UnionPay.
How do you transfer Mainland China data across the border compliantly?
Fill Easy moves Mainland China personal data across the border under its own filed Standard Contract (No. 202500031), approved by the Guangdong Cyberspace Authority, the legal mechanism required under China's Personal Information Protection Law (PIPL) for cross-border transfers.
When you verify through the Fill Easy API, the cross-border transfer happens under our licence, not yours. You are not left to secure and maintain your own PIPL Standard Contract filing, a process that typically takes a regulated firm many months.
Sending personal data between Hong Kong and Mainland China without a filed Standard Contract breaches PIPL, which carries statutory penalties of up to RMB 50 million or 5% of annual turnover. Verifying under our licence removes that exposure from your onboarding flow.

How it works
From a Chinese ID or company name to a sourced result
- 1
Submit the individual or company
Send a national ID and name (for KYC) or a corporate name and Unified Social Credit Code (for KYB), with a live face capture where the flow requires it.
- 2
We query the official Chinese authority
Fill Easy routes the check to the Ministry of Public Security for individuals, or to SAMR and UnionPay for companies and corporate bank accounts, using licensed cross-border data access.
- 3
You receive an auditable, sourced result
The API returns a real-time match or mismatch with the official source attributed, plus optional bank, phone, and adverse-record checks for enhanced due diligence.
Individual verification (KYC)
Government-sourced checks for Mainland China residents
Bank account verification
2FV to 5FV bank-account checks routed through UnionPay, confirming a customer controls the account they claim before high-value transactions.
Phone and address checks
Telecom-operator phone verification and address-existence checks add a second authoritative signal during onboarding.
Adverse history and risk
Litigation, credit-risk, and industry-blacklist checks from authoritative Chinese sources support enhanced due diligence on higher-risk customers.
Passive liveness and face match
A passive liveness check scores confidence that the subject is a live person, and a 1:1 face match compares the selfie to the ID portrait, defending against replayed photos and deepfakes.
One-click login and NFC
Telecom one-click login and China NFC document reading streamline onboarding while keeping the identity check sourced and compliant.
Company verification (KYB)
Verify Mainland China companies against SAMR and UnionPay
What can you confirm about a Mainland China company?
Fill Easy confirms a Chinese company's registered name, Unified Social Credit Code, legal representative, and operating status against SAMR, and verifies its corporate bank account through UnionPay.
For deeper diligence, a KYB report can include a financial summary, and licence verification covers financial and insurance licences against the National Financial Regulatory Administration. This means a foreign firm can confirm a Mainland supplier, partner, or counterparty is real, correctly registered, and in good standing, without reading Chinese-language registries or relying on an intermediary's cached copy. It is the corporate half of the same licensed cross-border data capability that powers individual verification.

Screening
AML, PEP, and sanctions screening in the same flow
Can you screen Mainland China customers for AML and sanctions risk?
Yes. Alongside identity and company verification, Fill Easy screens customers and counterparties against sanctions lists, politically-exposed-person (PEP) databases, domestic Chinese watchlists, and adverse media, returning a structured risk result.
Running screening in the same call as verification means enhanced due diligence does not need a separate vendor or a second integration.
The screening layer covers:
- Sanctions screening: global lists (OFAC, UN, EU, HMT) alongside domestic Chinese lists.
- PEP databases: politically-exposed-person identification covering Mainland China and Hong Kong.
- Adverse media: negative-news monitoring across Chinese and English sources.
- Domestic watchlists: People's Bank of China financial blacklists and SAMR serious-violation registries.
Coverage
Built for cross-border onboarding across the Greater Bay Area
Which Greater Bay Area markets does this cover?
Fill Easy's licensed cross-border data transfer covers the full Greater Bay Area, so Hong Kong institutions can verify and onboard Mainland customers across the nine GBA cities.
The covered cities are Hong Kong, Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Zhuhai, Foshan, Jiangmen, Zhongshan, Dongguan, and Huizhou. Because the data moves under our filed Standard Contract, institutions serving customers across the region are not left to manage a separate compliance filing for each transfer.
Why Fill Easy
The licensed cross-border lane into China
As Hong Kong banks tighten investment-account and cross-border rules following Beijing's crackdown on illicit capital outflows (widely reported in 2026), the pressure on firms to verify Mainland customers and counterparties at the source has risen.
Fill Easy connects directly to the Ministry of Public Security, SAMR, and UnionPay, pairs that with transparent per-check pricing, and attributes every result to its issuing authority.
That turns the hardest verification market into a routine API call.

FAQ
Common questions about China verification
How do you verify a Mainland China identity?
Fill Easy verifies a Mainland China identity by matching the submitted national ID number, name, date of birth, and where required a live face capture against the Ministry of Public Security record. The check returns in real time and is attributed to the issuing authority, so the result is auditable rather than an estimate from a document photo.
How do you verify a Chinese company?
Fill Easy verifies a Chinese company against the State Administration for Market Regulation (SAMR), confirming the registered corporate name, Unified Social Credit Code, legal representative, and operating status.
Corporate bank-account verification is available through UnionPay, and a full KYB report can include a financial summary, so you confirm a Mainland counterparty exists and is in good standing before transacting.
Why is Mainland China verification so hard for foreign vendors?
Mainland China identity and corporate data sits behind official sources (the Ministry of Public Security, SAMR, UnionPay, and telecom operators) that require licensed, compliant access and Chinese-language handling.
Most global verification vendors cannot connect directly and fall back to manual review or resellers.
Fill Easy's licensed cross-border data access is exactly what makes this lane its strongest capability.
What does Hong Kong's tightening of cross-border rules mean for onboarding?
Hong Kong banks have tightened investment-account and cross-border rules following Beijing's crackdown on illicit capital outflows (as widely reported in 2026).
For firms onboarding Mainland China customers and counterparties, that raises the bar on verifying who they are dealing with.
Source-level KYC and KYB, confirming identity and corporate standing against official Chinese authorities, directly supports meeting that higher scrutiny.
How does Fill Easy transfer Mainland China data to Hong Kong legally?
Fill Easy holds a filed Standard Contract (No. 202500031) approved by the Guangdong Cyberspace Authority, the mechanism required under China's PIPL (Article 38) for cross-border transfers of personal data.
When you verify through the Fill Easy API, the transfer happens under our licence, so you are not left to secure and maintain your own PIPL filing. Transferring without one breaches PIPL, which carries statutory penalties of up to RMB 50 million or 5% of annual turnover.
Is Mainland China verification compliant and secure?
Yes. Fill Easy is ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certified, operates with licensed cross-border data access, and handles personal data in line with applicable privacy requirements. Checks that require user consent are flagged as such, and every result is returned with its official source attributed.
