In some cases, Stripe will require you to provide an image of your photo ID to confirm your identity. We'll need to capture an image of your government-issued photo ID, such as a driving licence, in your Dashboard. Please do not send images of your photo ID to Stripe via email. This is sensitive information and should only be uploaded via the Dashboard.
These are the accepted documents for verification in Brazil:
| Account representative(s) personal verification | - Carteira de Motorista (CNH) (driving licence) - Carteira de Identidade (RG) (national ID) with the CPF number - Passaporte de estrangeiros (non-Brazilian shareholders only) |

Once you have uploaded a document for verification, reviews can take up to 24 hours to be completed by our team – you will receive a notification once your details have been verified.
The information in the document must match the information provided for your Stripe account registration. To avoid issues with your account verification, please confirm that the business/personal information listed on your Stripe account is correct before uploading a document. You can view and edit your Stripe business information in the Dashboard.

Business verification: The document must include the full business name, the business address and the company registration number (CNPJ) of the incorporated entity. This information must be clearly stated and legible.
If the document used for business verification doesn't show the CNPJ number, please upload an additional document, such as the Cartão CNPJ (only accepted as a complementary document for verification) or another document from the list above, to complete your business verification. If this information is spread across multiple pages of your document, please upload a PDF containing all the relevant pages.
Person verification: A CPF number must be visible in the ID uploaded for verification and is mandatory for businesses' legal representatives (optional for shareholders living abroad; see Acceptable verification documents by country).
