Prepare identity and civil status records, police certificates, financials, and clear source-of-wealth trails. Expect comprehensive AML/KYC across all relevant jurisdictions.
CBM reviews identity, background, and financial integrity in depth. Be ready for clarifications on business roles, beneficial ownership, litigation, and media references, with supporting documents to close gaps.
Many civil documents must be apostilled or legalized. Confirm country-specific rules early and keep certified translations aligned with the source spelling and date formats to avoid rework.
Provide a clear, reconciled trail from origin to current holdings. Typical proofs include audited statements, contracts/sale deeds, tax filings, bank letters, and transaction histories with dates and counterparties.
Document lawful acquisition and custody: exchange/KYC records, wallet evidence, on-chain history where relevant, and compliant off-ramping to fiat. Auditor letters can help translate technical detail for reviewers.
Some items have short validity (e.g., police certificates, bank statements). Maintain a refresh schedule so key proofs remain current at decision and before final formalities.
Provide certificates for each country of citizenship and recent residence, observing any look-back periods. Order them early and track validity windows so they remain current through decision.
Statements are typically from the last 1–3 months at filing, with refreshes if processing extends. Include holder name, masked account numbers, and opening/closing balances so totals reconcile cleanly. We prepare a short mapping sheet across multiple banks/entities and format everything to the authority’s expectations.
Source of wealth covers long-term accumulation (business income, exits, investments) with corroboration; source of funds ties the specific monies used to a verified, immediate origin. We create a labeled flow memo and supporting bundle so the trail is unambiguous. Our team curates, indexes, and cross-references each exhibit for quick review.
Certified scans usually suffice initially; originals or legalized/apostilled copies may be requested later. Keep originals organized for rapid couriering—we’ll advise exactly which documents need apostille/legalization and arrange it for you.
Bridge discrepancies with change-of-name deeds, affidavits, or civil registry extracts, plus consistent translations. Our team can coordinate any required notarizations.
Exchange KYC, wallet/address evidence, on-chain histories, and compliant off-ramping trails into bank accounts are key; auditor letters and tax filings strengthen provenance.
Where required, yes—translations should include translator credentials and follow local notarization rules. We can handle certified translations and notarizations/apostilles as needed and keep names, dates, and formats perfectly consistent to avoid re-work. Originals and translations are indexed side-by-side for easy cross-reference.
Plan for freshness at filing, decision, and final formalities, since the process can span months. We'll monitor renewal dates for police checks, bank statements, and insurance so nothing lapses, and we prep replacements early if expiry is approaching.
Often yes: registry extracts, share certificates, board minutes, tax returns, bank letters, and dividend proofs help establish control and income. We'll guide you along the way.
Flag the obstacle early and we’ll propose acceptable substitutes (certified extracts, regulator letters, sworn affidavits) with a brief explanation. We also guide the evidence chain so authenticity and completeness are preserved. From drafting affidavits to coordinating certifications, our team manages the process A-to-Z.
