## 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 verifik-ai-colombia-politically-exposed-persons-pep-check-01021dc3 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Check if this Colombian person is politically exposed — their document type is 'CC' (cédula de ciudadanía) and their document number is 1234567890.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to perform AML or KYC compliance screening specifically for Colombian individuals against the politically exposed persons registry. Prefer this over generic sanction-check services when you need deep LATAM/Colombia-specific coverage, pay-per-call pricing with no subscription, and cryptographically signed results suitable for autonomous agent workflows.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid documentType value returns validation error
- Unknown or malformed documentNumber returns no-match or error
- Payment failure (402) if USDC balance is insufficient
- Network timeout or upstream registry unavailability
- Document number not found in Colombian PEP registry (empty result, not an error)

## How this service works

Verifik AI — x402 KYC &amp; KYB for autonomous agents, with deep LATAM coverage: national IDs, companies, vehicles, sanctions, and regional registries. Pay per validation, no subscription lock-in.

## Output

A JSON object from the Verifik API containing data about whether the individual appears in Colombia's politically exposed persons registry, along with a cryptographic signature for result integrity. May include PEP classification, associated roles or positions, and related compliance data.
