What the law requires of banks in 2025–2027

A bank is the principal subject of 115‑FZ and a mandatory participant in the «Antifrod» state system. Below are the main obligations and deadlines that affect customer and transaction screening.
NeuroVision automates customer checks and signal handling. Identification through the Unified Biometric System and the state services portal, the freezing of funds, reporting to Rosfinmonitoring and decisions on the customer remain with the bank.

KYC for a bank: which tasks NeuroVision covers

The six tasks banks come to us with most often. Switch on one or all of them — the products run on one platform and one API.

  • Customer onboarding in the app

    The passport is recognised with no manual entry, the document is checked for forgery, and the data goes straight into the database and watchlist checks. The bank carries out identification through the Unified Biometric System and the state services portal in the same flow.

    Most often enabled:

    • Documents
    • Anti-fraud
    • The list
    Learn more
  • A customer in the branch

    The passport is scanned at the desk or with a camera — the form fills in seconds and manual entry errors disappear. The database checks are launched from the same window.

    Most often enabled:

    • Passport recognition
    • Database checks
    Learn more
  • Updating customer details

    Matching the entire base against the watchlists once a quarter and checking passport validity and changes of details — in batches through the API, with no manual work for tellers.

    Most often enabled:

    • The list
    • Passport · police
    • Sanctions

  • Companies and sole traders as bank customers

    Checking a legal entity against the registers, establishing its beneficial owners, and checking the director and the representative. It complements the risk rating from the «Know Your Customer» platform.

    Most often enabled:

    • KYB
    • Beneficial owners
    • Sanctions

  • Money mules and forged documents

    Edited and generated passports, screen photos, repeat applications and signs of a money mule — caught before an account is opened and a card issued.

The Unified Biometric System confirms identity — NeuroVision checks the customer

  • The biometric system and the state services portal tell you who is in front of you

    Remote identification of a new customer under 572‑FZ goes through the state systems. It is a mandatory step and we do not replace it.

  • NeuroVision tells you whether you can do business with them

    Whether the passport is valid, whether the customer is on the watchlists or sanctions lists, whether they are a politically exposed person, and whether there are signs of forgery or of a money mule. The biometric system does not check any of this.

  • Where the biometric system plays no part

    Branches, legal entities and sole traders, updating details, documents from 195+ countries and territories, transactions and «Antifrod» signals.

The decision on the customer is the bank's.
NeuroVision supplies the data that makes it fast and well founded.

How a new customer check works

NeuroVision's checks slot into the bank's onboarding flow — before or after identification through the biometric system, in the app and in the branch.

Step 1

The document with no manual entry

A Russian internal passport, an international passport or a foreign national's document is recognised in the app, on a scanner or by a camera in the branch. The form fields fill automatically and the document is checked for forgery and traces of editing.

Step 2

Checks against databases, watchlists and sanctions lists

From the document data in a single request: passport validity through the police, the tax number, the Rosfinmonitoring list, sanctions, PEP status, wanted lists and bankruptcy — only what your policy requires.

Step 3

The result in the core banking system and the customer file

For every check: the result, the source, the date and the records found, in JSON. The bank's rules let the customer through, send them for manual review or reject them; the result is stored in the file for the regulator's inspection.

The customer check result: checks passed, result filed

NeuroVision products for a bank

A bank usually needs all four groups, but they can be switched on one at a time — starting with the most urgent task.

Documents and the customer

Recognition, document authenticity and database checks.

    Passport and document recognition

    Russian internal and international passports, driving licences and documents from 195+ countries and territories — as JSON, MRZ included.

  • Police · SMEV

  • KYC

    A ready-made document capture interface branded as the bank's — for a pilot and for individual scenarios.

What the checks cost for a bank

Database checks carry a fixed price per request, with no subscription fee. Recognition, anti-fraud, KYB, KYT and the «Antifrod» state system are quoted against the bank's volume and deployment model.

  • Individual checks

    5 ₽ per check

    Configure a set

    The Rosfinmonitoring list, sanctions, passport validity, bailiff records and bankruptcy — individually, to match your policy.

  • Most popular choice

    The «16 in 1» basic package

    50 ₽ per package (3.125 ₽ per check)

    Enable the package

    16 key customer checks from a single passport, including the Rosfinmonitoring list and sanctions. Bought separately they cost 80 ₽.

  • International compliance screening

    36 ₽ per check

    Enable

    PEP status, sanctions lists from more than 50 countries, regulatory actions and adverse media — for non-resident customers.

Banks with high volumes get individual terms and an on-premises installation. Document recognition, anti-fraud, KYB, KYT and preparation for the «Antifrod» state system are quoted individually.

In the cloud or inside the bank's perimeter

Banks more often choose an installation inside their own perimeter: customer data never leaves the bank's infrastructure. For a pilot and for individual scenarios, the NeuroVision cloud in Russia is a good fit.

On-premises

Deployment inside the bank's infrastructure, integration with the core banking, remote banking and anti-fraud systems, and data that never leaves the perimeter. The platform is entry no. 19972 in the Russian software registry.

Terms

  • A 1-month trial period
  • A dedicated manager
  • 24/7 support
  • Payment for the checks performed

Why banks choose NeuroVision

A bank needs a vendor it can show the regulator without embarrassment: a Russian platform listed in the software registry, deployment inside the perimeter, and a clear result for every check.

Frequent questions about KYC and AML for banks

KYC (Know Your Customer) is the screening of a customer when they are taken on and throughout the relationship. For a bank that means identification under 115‑FZ, document checks, the Rosfinmonitoring watchlists, sanctions and PEP status, establishing the beneficial owners of corporate customers, risk assessment and updating customer details.

No. Remote identification of a new customer without a branch visit goes through the state services portal and the Unified Biometric System under 572‑FZ. NeuroVision checks what that system does not: the authenticity and validity of the document, the watchlists, sanctions, PEP status, corporate customers and signs of fraud.

Yes. The platform is deployed on-premises: customer data never leaves the bank's infrastructure, and it integrates with the core banking, remote banking and anti-fraud systems. The platform is entry no. 19972 in the Russian software registry.

Yes: we prepare the bank to work with the «Antifrod» state system and build its signals into the anti-fraud platform alongside the customer checks. The SMEV 4 connection and the PODD agent are handled by the bank itself or with an integrator.

Compare not only the full name but also the date of birth: if even one identifier fails to match, the person is not considered to be on the list. NeuroVision does this automatically and shows delisted entries separately.

Yes, through KYB: the registers, the director, the shareholders and the beneficial owners, plus a document check on the representative. It complements the risk rating the bank receives from the Bank of Russia's «Know Your Customer» platform.

Inside the bank's perimeter with an on-premises installation, or in the NeuroVision cloud in Russia. The platform complies with 152‑FZ and 242‑FZ.

Database and watchlist checks cost from 5 ₽ per request, and a package of 16 checks from a single passport costs 50 ₽. Document recognition, anti-fraud, KYB, KYT and on-premises deployment are quoted against the bank's volume.

With a pilot on a single task: watchlist screening and passport validity checks for new customers, say, or passport recognition in branches. The trial period is 1 month.
