# KYC application parameter dictionary

> The complete dictionary of enumerated values accepted by the KYC application endpoint, so that you can fill each field in by code.

## 📄 Guide

When you submit a KYC application (`/open-api/kyc-ticket/v1/apply-kyc`), fields such as the address document type, occupation, employment status and source of funds are all **enumerations**, and you must send the `code` shown in the tables below. This page lists those enumerations in full for you to work against during integration.

## Address proof document type (poaDocType)

`poaDocType` values do not differ between integration models — both share one list. **Which types are actually accepted depends on the user's country or region**: the accepted proof-of-address types vary by country, so follow the coverage list you confirmed with DCS.
