What documents do I need to supply when registering?

Supporting documents aren’t always required, but providing us with the right documents when requested will help us get your account set up faster.

For an Indian company with non-Indian shareholders or directors, we may need copies of government issued photo ID (e.g. passport, driving licence), and a recent proof of address (utility bill or personal bank statement).

Any other Indian business will need to supply the following documents:

Copies of government issued photo ID for directors and shareholders (e.g. passport, driving licence or true copy of PAN)
Copies of proof of address for directors and shareholders (utility bill, personal bank statement or true copy of Aadhaar Card, less than three months old)
A copy of the annual tax return or other official document confirming the names of the individual shareholders/owners of the business
A copy of the certificate of incorporation or business bank statement

You may also be asked to provide us with verification of your seller profiles and sales history, but we’ll explain exactly what’s required.

Do I have to sign up for a minimum period, or pay a fee for not using the account?

There’s no minimum period that you have to sign up for, and you won’t be charged anything for not using your account.

Can I set up automated payments from my multi-currency account?

With the AutoWithdraw service you can set up automatic transfers from your multi-currency account to a specified bank account. It’s a free service and gives you the option to automatically transfer funds every time they arrive in your account, or once your account balance reaches a set level. Simply go to the ‘AutoWithdraw’ tab on your online account and follow the instructions to set up a new automatic transfer or cancel an existing one.
