Make sure you follow our photo requirements when you upload your photo.
If you don’t have a valid Passport (UK or International), Photo Driving Licence (UK or European) or European National ID , you need a referee – a professional person validating original document(s) or confirming your details from official records.
If applicable, check whether your referee completed the Digital Referee Declaration Form to submit their work details to us.
If applicable, make sure that your referee can be contacted by phone and email during office hours at their place of work.
