How can I provide proof of my shareholder structure?

If we need your help confirming your company's beneficial owners, just head to your application in the dashboard tab, and follow the instructions to see the documents we can accept as proof.

The documents must contain the names of all beneficial owners of your company and their ownership stake, and dated as mentioned:

  • Registry extract [most up-to-date copy, but not older than 3 months]
  • Certificate of Incorporation [most up-to-date copy, but not older than 3 months]
  • Articles of Association [most up-to-date copy, but not older than 3 months]
  • Audited Annual Report [For the most recently ended financial year]
  • Shares Registry [most up-to-date copy, but not older than 3 months]
  • Confirmation Statement
  • Share Certificate / Cap table / Ownership chart [Copy obtained in the last 12 months)
  • If any of the above documents provided can't be verified using an unpaid public source, then:

    • For all documents except share certificates, capitalisation (cap) tables, or ownership charts, we may need you to provide a copy of the documents notarised as a true copy.
    • For share certificates, capitalisation (cap) tables, or ownership charts, we may need you to provide documents notarised as true content.

    We aim to review your documents within 24 hours and we'll let you know if we need any more information. Keep in mind — the documents we can accept depend on the complexity of your company and/or the documents you’ve uploaded previously.
