# ProposeDvp

> Create an on-chain DvpProposal

Propose a Delivery-vs-Payment settlement on chain. The proposer must have already paid the DvP fee with [`PayDvpFee`](/agentic-api/dvp/pay-dvp-fee).

Invoked through the two-phase [transaction flow](/agentic-api/transaction-flow) with:

* `operation = TRANSACTION_OPERATION_PROPOSE_DVP`
* `params.propose_dvp = ProposeDvpParams { … }`

## Params

<ParamField path="proposal_id" type="string" required>
  Settlement proposal identifier — must match the one used in `PayDvpFee`.
</ParamField>

```proto theme={null}
message ProposeDvpParams {
  string proposal_id = 1;
}
```

## Next step

The counterparty discovers the resulting `DvpProposal` via [`GetSettlementContracts`](/agentic-api/dvp/get-settlement-contracts) and accepts it with [`AcceptDvp`](/agentic-api/dvp/accept-dvp).

**Full sequence**: [PayDvpFee](/agentic-api/dvp/pay-dvp-fee) → **ProposeDvp** → [AcceptDvp](/agentic-api/dvp/accept-dvp) → [PayAllocFee](/agentic-api/dvp/pay-alloc-fee) → [Allocate](/agentic-api/dvp/allocate).
