This guide explains how to complete your identity verification form using your desktop, uploading photos of your ID from your computer.


Before you start

  • You need a photo of your ID saved on your computer: your passport's ID page, or the front (and back, for NZ) of your driver licence, or the front and back of your national ID card.
  • We only accept clear photographs. Scans and photocopies aren't accepted.
  • If you're currently residing in China, Chinese data laws mean you can't access this electronic form. See About the identity verification form for manual verification options.
  • Don't have your ID photos saved on your computer? You can switch to your phone partway through this form. See How to complete the identity verification form: desktop to mobile.
