### If your document type isn't listed

* Charity establishment document
* Partnerships registration document (for example, GewA1)
* Government-issued document (for example, a document showing tax-exempt status)
* Any bank-issued document
* Utility bill
## Uploading your verification documents
Upload your verification documents through [Proof of Business upload](https://dashboard.stripe.com/account/verifications) in your Dashboard. Don't send documents by email.
## Tax ID for unincorporated entities, partnerships or charities
In some countries, you can't select charity in the onboarding forms or on the [Tax information page](https://dashboard.stripe.com/settings/taxation) in your Dashboard. In this case, onboard by selecting **Company** if incorporated or **Individual** if not.
If your unincorporated entity, partnership or charity doesn't have a tax ID, another ID number identifying your legal entity appearing on your uploaded verification documents can be considered such as a Charity Registration Number.
For Australia and New Zealand, a Business Registration Number (ABN) is typically required for unincorporated entities, including charities.
If no other ID is available, enter zeros in the tax ID field on the [Tax information page](https://dashboard.stripe.com/settings/taxation).
