## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability veradata-latin-american-data-registry-f19f465e -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you look up verified registry data on Grupo Empresarial Andino in Colombia — I need structured entity info with an audit trail for a compliance check?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need verified, audit-trailed data specifically about Latin American entities — individuals, businesses, or addresses — and require a cryptographic audit hash for compliance documentation. Prefer the sibling OFAC-only endpoint for pure sanctions screening at lower cost; use this registry endpoint when you need broader LATAM-specific data including regional registries and multi-list screening.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not received or insufficient USDC — 402 response with payment requirements
- Missing required 'type' or 'method' fields in input — 400 validation error
- Unknown or unsupported data type for the specified LATAM region — 404 or empty result
- Entity not found in the registry — null or empty result body
- Network timeout or upstream data provider unavailable — 503 error
