In order to provide best-in-class protections for users, Stripe is updating how we collect, validate, and verify business information for US businesses accepting card payments and for any individuals who ultimately own, control, or direct the business.
As a result, your business may need to provide updated information. Our goal is to help ensure your safe and uninterrupted access to the payments ecosystem.
Log into the Dashboard to view required actions. See below for common issues and information we may be requesting from you.
Sole proprietors and single member LLCs must provide their business address.
All legal entity types (including government entities and public companies) must provide an email for the account representative.
Additionally, there are some changes to our SSN and ITIN requirements.

SSN or ITIN from US resident representatives and owners |
Full 9 digits required once payment volume exceeds $500K. |
