Hi @Vfttyt,
Thank you for your post and welcome to the Community Forum!
As proof of identity, we can accept any government-issued document that shows your personal details such as your full name and date of birth, and your picture. As proof of address, you can provide a utility bill, financial statement or a government-issued document with your personal details and your address. The document needs to be issued within the last 6 months to be valid.
I hope this helps!
Martina
