We ask you for additional documents so that we can comply with HMRC, FCA, and BOL (Bank of Lithuania) regulations, and keep your money safe. Providing them in advance will make your transfers even more straightforward. Our Customer Support Team will support you with this process.

We reserve the right to request additional documents for reasons other than those mentioned above. These measures allow us to protect our customers from fraud, and payment depends on these measures being followed.
All the documents you send us are entirely safe: we store them in a private, secure data centre that can only be accessed by our trained staff via a 2-factor authentication panel.
Feel free to contact Customer Support if you’re sending large amounts and want to check the details of the verification process in advance.
