We are legally obligated to verify the identity of all customers under Money Laundering Regulations (MLR). These regulations require us to “know our client” before providing any services. Without completed ID verification, we are not authorized to proceed.

  • Holds over 25% of voting rights
  • Exercises significant influence or control over the company

ID verification is quick and straightforward, conducted securely online through our trusted partner. The process usually takes only a few minutes during checkout.

Typically, you’ll need to submit:

  • One or more of the following: Passport, Driving Licence, National ID, Utility Bill, or Bank Statement
  • A selfie or short video for identity confirmation

Most verifications are completed within minutes. In some cases, additional checks might be necessary, which could extend the process slightly.

We must follow legal requirements without exception. Failing to perform proper ID checks could result in serious regulatory penalties and legal consequences.
