Get identification type
Look up the country-specific identification type that a customer must provide as their tin value. Each country uses a different identification system (e.g. SSN in the US, BVN in Nigeria, NINO in the UK), and individual vs business customers within the same country may require different types. Call this endpoint before creating or updating a customer to know what field label to show in your UI and what value to collect. Save the collected value as the customer’s tin field. Required scope: virtual-account:read.
