Are all entity types guaranteed to be approved?

No. Approval is not guaranteed for any entity type. All applications go through a review process that includes KYC (identity verification) and KYB (business verification). Some entity types, industries, or structures may require additional documentation or Enhanced Due Diligence. A small number of applications may be declined based on compliance review.

What documents are typically required?

Documentation requirements vary by entity type. Common requirements include:

  • Formation documents (Articles of Incorporation, LLC Operating Agreement, LP Agreement, etc.)

  • EIN confirmation letter

  • Proof of business address

  • Government-issued ID for owners and beneficial owners

  • Ownership and beneficial ownership information

For non-U.S. entities, additional documentation is typically required. See Document requirements for non-US business verification during onboarding.
