Certification of Documents
We are required to verify all business entities and ownership structures on the Rails Pro platform as part of Know Your Business (KYB) regulatory requirements. While we use third-party tools for verification, some countries lack public access to support this process. If we cannot independently verify the documents you upload, they may need to be certified or notarized.
To certify your documents, have a qualified individual complete this form and upload it with your business documents at the Company Document stage of your application (the final step).
Who can certify your documents?
The following individuals are acceptable certifiers:
Lawyer
Accountant
Director or manager of a regulated organization or financial service provider
Notary public
Member of the judiciary
Senior civil servant
This person may be employed by your organization but should not be a peer. For example, if you are a director or manager at a financial institution, have the documents certified by a lawyer or accountant, not another director or manager.
What to include in the certification
The certification must be digitally signed and should include the following:
Certifier’s name
Certifier’s signature
Certifier’s role or job title
Confirmation that the certifier is an employee of their organization
Date of certification
Following these guidelines helps ensure a smooth and secure verification process.
