Proof of ID

We ask you to provide proof of identification to start working with us

Providing Proof of Identity and Address

During our onboarding process, we require you to prove your identity. This helps us verify your details and ensure compliance with local regulations, as well as ensuring you are who you say you are. Below, we explain the types of documents we accept and how to submit them.

Failure to comply with this process, or providing fake documents will disqualify you from Scholars.

Proof of Identity

Your proof of identity must be a government-issued document that includes your full name and photograph. Common examples include:

• National ID card

• Passport

• Driver’s license

• Residence permit

If your country does not issue these specific documents, an equivalent government-issued ID is also acceptable. The document must be valid and clearly show your full name, photo, and date of birth.

How to Submit Documents

You can upload a clear scan or high-quality photo of your documents in the online form. Ensure all details are clearly visible and not obscured or cropped.

How We Handle Your Information Safely

We take the protection of your personal information seriously. All documents you submit are stored securely, in compliance with global data protection regulations (such as GDPR). Access to your documents is strictly limited to authorized personnel, and your information will only be used for verification purposes. Once your identity and address are verified, your documents will not be shared with third parties without your consent.

For any questions or concerns about the types of documents accepted, or if you are unsure which document to provide, please contact our support team for further assistance.
