Identification (ID) & Evidence of Residence

In common with most banks and professional advisers we are required by law to conduct identification checks on clients even where they are known personally to us or have had dealings with us in the past. In order to satisfy those requirements, please provide one item (preferably photo id) from Section A and two from Section B.

If you cannot provide these, for any reason, then we do offer an online alternative. The details are provided at the bottom of this page.

Section A (Evidence of Name)

• Current Passport
• Current UK or EEA Photocard Driving Licence

Secondary

• Original Birth Certificate
• EEA Member ID Card
• Full Old-Style Driving Licence
• Photographic CIS4 (Construction Industry) Card
• Benefit Book or original Entitlement Letter from Benefits Agency
• Firearms or Shotgun Certificate

Section B (Evidence of Address/Residence)

• Utility Bill (Gas, Water, Electricity etc) issued in the last three months
• LA Council Tax Bill for the current year
