Summary0007365: KYC fee is never charged / not speced or implemented
DescriptionThe taler-exchange-offline tool (already) has a means to specify a KYC fee, and in principle the "/kyc-check" endpoint could generate a 402 payment required for the KYC process. However, the detailed 402 response is unspecified and also not implemented.
TagsNo tags attached.

There's now a high-level hint of the exchange possibly returning a 402 in the /kyc-check spec.

Discussion today: have different KYC fees per trigger.

Charge KYC fees either to reserve (incl. wallet's long-term reserve for balance trigger) or to outgoing wire amount.

As long as frees cannot be paid, transaction is simply on hold until KYC threshold is gone below or balance goes high enough to pay KYC fee.

Given that AML may trigger KYC, I think the _only_ case where we legitimately can and should charge a KYC fee is if a client explicitly asks for it -- e.g. because they want to get attributes signed for invoicing.
