Typically, users need to provide Proof of Identify (PoI) and a recent Proof of Address (PoA) to pass our account opening process requirements.

Our requirements for identity verification includes:
1. Proof of Identity. Here, you may provide a National Identification Card, Passport, Driver’s License, or other government-issued identification document containing the following information:

  • Identification document number

  • Full name

  • Date of birth

  • Date of expiry

2.Proof of Address. This could be any letter recently received at home from a formal institution, displaying your full name and address. It could be:

  • a utility Bill, Phone Bill, Bank Statement, Internet Bill, Rental Agreement etc. (within the last three months).

  • a valid Photo ID with the address

  • It is not necessary to furnish supplementary evidence of residence if the address details are clearly discernible on the submitted proof of identity, such as a civil identity document, even if the current residence does not correspond to the address provided. It should be noted that identity documents issued by various countries or regions, including but not limited to the People's Republic of China, Taiwan, Singapore, and Malaysia, typically contain comprehensive address information. As such, individuals from the aforementioned countries or regions are advised to exercise caution when initiating an account. No further verification of address is deemed necessary.

When providing proof of address, it should be a full document format, clearly displaying the name and address (PO Boxes not accepted).

For Australian clients, beyond the documents required, you will also be invited to participate in a quick online questionnaire to test your basic trading knowledge.
