IB LLC is required to verify the identity and address of each applicant and, where we are unable to do so via electronic means, will instruct the applicant to submit copies of official documents as evidence (e.g., passport, driver’s license, national ID, bank statement utility statement). In most instances the applicant will need to submit two separate documents, one as proof of address and the other as proof of identity, even when a single document contains both. Individuals residing in certain countries, however, are eligible to submit a single qualifying document as proof of both their identity and address. A list of countries whose residents are eligible to submit a single qualifying document as proof of both their identity and address is listed below¹.
