# Business Onboarding

> Complete the Ryno business verification process and submit your application for review.

Business onboarding allows Ryno to verify your organisation before activating access to the Business Portal.

You will provide information about your business, its management and ownership structure, and the supporting documents required for compliance review.

## Review timeline

Applications are typically reviewed within **24–48 business hours** after submission.

The review may take longer where:

* Additional documents are required
* Information cannot be verified automatically
* Ownership structures are complex
* Further compliance checks are required

## If more information is required

Ryno may ask you to:

* Correct business information
* Replace an unclear or expired document
* Provide an additional document
* Clarify the role of a director, shareholder, or beneficial owner

<Warning>
  Your application may remain pending until all requested information has been provided.
