ID Requirements for Virtual Office Services

Step-by-Step Guide to Completing Your Verification

Why Do We Require ID Verification?

We’re committed to maintaining the highest standards of compliance and security. ID verification is a legal requirement to comply with Anti-Money Laundering (AML) regulations and Know Your Customer (KYC) standards. These measures help ensure the integrity of our virtual office services while protecting you and your business.

Who Needs to Provide ID?

To activate your virtual office service, the following individuals need to provide identification:

  • All company officers, including corporate officers (except secretaries).
  • For companies with multiple officers, each officer will need to complete the verification process.

What Documents Are Required?

To complete your verification, you’ll need to provide:

  • One Government-Issued Photo ID (e.g., Passport, UK Driving Licence, or National Identity Card).
  • One Proof of Address Document (e.g., Utility Bill or Bank Statement dated within the last three months).

Important Notes:

  • Proof of address documents must contain your full name and cannot be addressed to a business.
  • International clients must have their documents certified by an authorised professional, such as a notary or solicitor.
