Know Your Customer (KYC) Documentation Guidelines
In compliance with the regulatory standards of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), all customers are required to complete the Know Your Customer (KYC) process before an account can be opened or financial services accessed.
These requirements help us:
• Verify customer identity
• Prevent fraud and financial crimes
• Ensure compliance with Anti-Money Laundering (AML) regulations
• Maintain a secure banking environment for all customers
Below are the documentation requirements for different account categories.
Individual Accounts
To open an individual account, customers must provide the following:
• Valid means of identification (National Identification Number (NIN) slip/card, Voter’s Card, Driver’s License, or International Passport)
• One recent passport photograph
• Proof of address (Utility bill, tenancy agreement, or verifiable residential/store/shop address)
• Bank Verification Number (BVN)
• Completed account opening form
All documents must be valid and verifiable. Our staff will assist you throughout the documentation and verification process to ensure a smooth onboarding experience.
Business / Corporate Accounts
For registered businesses, partnerships, and corporate entities, the following documents are required:
• Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) Registration Documents (Certificate of Incorporation, Form CAC 1.1 or equivalent)
