Required Account Opening Documents (International Accounts)

What documents are required?

International account applications will not be reviewed unless accompanied by a copy of a passport or driver’s license AND proof of a physical address provided on the application. The proof of address document cannot be more than a year old. During the application process, there will be a portal where you may upload your documents.


Examples of a Proof of a Physical Address document include:

  • Government-issued photo ID (with the address listed)
  • Utility bill
  • Bank statement
  • Credit card bill
