How identity verification works in Netherlands.
- Fraud landscape
- Three pressures shape Dutch identity fraud: deepfake attacks on Amsterdam's neobank cluster and DNB-licensed crypto-asset service providers, sophisticated forgery of the verblijfsdocument residence card on the migration corridor, and identity-swap fraud on Dutch marketplaces and gig platforms (Bol, Marktplaats, Uber Eats). Didit scores 200+ real-time fraud signals on every session — face morph, replay, injection, document tampering, device intelligence, IP geolocation.
- Compliance frameworks
- Wwft (Wet ter voorkoming van witwassen en financieren van terrorisme)
- DNB Anti-Money Laundering Guidance
- AMLD6
- MiCA
- DORA
- GDPR / UAVG
- eIDAS 2.0

Screen for sanctions, PEPs, and adverse media.
1,300+ global sanctions, PEP, and adverse-media lists — plus Dutch watchlists:
- Government of the Netherlands — Dutch National Sanction List — domestic sanctions designations aligned with EU and UN resolutions.
- Authority for Financial Markets Netherlands — Warnings — AFM regulatory warnings and enforcement actions against financial-market participants.
- House of Representatives of the Netherlands — PEP register — Tweede Kamer members (PEP Level 1).
- Party for Freedom (PVV) — PEP register — senior party officials with public-function exposure.
- Autoriteit Consument & Markt (ACM.nl) — SIE — state-invested enterprise and regulated-entity register.

- Hits are scored by severity — a Tweede Kamer member surfaces as a PEP Level 1, a regional commissioner as PEP Level 2, sanctions as critical.
- Turn on ongoing monitoring ($0.07 per user / year) and Didit re-checks every customer daily, firing a webhook the moment a new hit appears.
