Not available in EN-US — showing English.

To verify your account, you are required to provide a separate document (other than your proof of identity) confirming your current residential address.

What information must my proof of address document show?

This document must be issued in the name of the etoro account holder and must contain the following information:

a. Your name

b. Your current residential address

c. The date of issue

d. The issuing authority

e. A reference to the issuing authority (logo, contact information, website etc.)

How recent must my proof of address document be?

Most documents, such as utility bills or bank statements, must be dated within the last 3 months. The only exception to this rule is valid government-issued identification, such as a driving license, which can be used provided it is currently valid.
