Requirements for Business Verification

Business VerificationRevision: 2026-06-26Language: EN

To complete business verification, you will need to supply company registration documents, proof of address, and UBO information.

The exact documents required for business verification depend on the requesting business's compliance configuration and the jurisdiction your company is registered in. However, the following documents and pieces of information are commonly requested.

Standard document requirements

Certificate of incorporation or equivalent company registration document.

Memorandum and articles of association (or equivalent constitutional document).

Proof of registered business address (e.g. utility bill or bank statement in the company's name, issued within 3 months).

UBO (Ultimate Beneficial Owner) information

You will typically need to identify all individuals who own or control a significant share of the company, as defined by the requesting business’s compliance requirements and applicable law. For each UBO, you may need to provide their full name, date of birth, nationality, and address. They may also be asked to complete an individual KYC check.

Additional documents that may be requested

A corporate structure chart for businesses with complex group ownership.

Proof of authority to act on behalf of the company (e.g. board resolution or power of attorney).

Most recent audited financial statements, in some regulated industries.

Licences or regulatory approvals relevant to the business's activity.

All documents submitted for business verification should be current, unaltered, and in good quality. Where originals are not available, certified copies may be accepted depending on the business's requirements. For questions about what is required for your specific situation, contact the business that initiated the KYB check.
