Key Topics

What is KYC?

Know Your Customer (KYC) is a regulatory requirement that helps financial institutions verify customer identities and assess risk levels. This process protects both you and the institution from fraud and ensures compliance with anti-money laundering regulations.

Required Information

You'll need to provide personal details including full name, date of birth, address, nationality, and contact information. All information must match your official documents exactly.

Document Preparation

Prepare a government-issued photo ID (passport, driver's license, or national ID), proof of address (utility bill or bank statement dated within 3 months), and ensure you're in a well-lit area for photo capture.

Step-by-Step Guide
