The regulators require us to check the identity of our customers as part of the money laundering regulations. We do as much of this as we can online and automatically, through industry-renowned third-party providers. In rare cases where we can't identify you through these channels, we'll ask for more information.
Please make sure that any documents you upload:
- match the details saved in your Vanguard account (for example, please make sure your name matches exactly)
- show the full document and aren’t cropped
This will help us verify your identity or bank account as quickly as possible.
Once you've uploaded your documents, we'll start reviewing them as soon as we can. It can take up to 10 business days to verify documents.

If you are an existing client, please send us a secure message using the Inbox feature within your account. This will help us respond with information specific to you.
