The player may declare this kan during any turn; and therefore, the player does not need to declare kan immediately at first opportunity.  If the player has just claimed a discarded tile instead of drawing a tile from the wall or the dead wall, then the ability to declare kan is disabled on this turn. The player would have to wait for the next tile draw instead. It is also forbidden to declare a kan while the wall is empty, because the dead wall cannot be replenished.

If another player is tenpai and the added tile completes his hand, that player may call ''ron'' immediately after the ''shominkan'' declaration. This is called [[chankan]] or robbing the kan. It ends the hand before the kan is completed, therefore no kan dora indicator is flipped.
This kan call is vulnerable to one specific yaku: [[chankan]] or robbing the kan.  If another player is tenpai and the added tile completes his hand, that player may call ''ron'' immediately after the ''shominkan'' declaration. It ends the hand before the kan is completed; therefore no new kan dora indicator is flipped.
