Nationality Verification Form
A self-certification buried in a stack of new account paperwork isn't the kind of record a compliance team can rely on for a regulatory filing. Collect nationality, tax residency, and a signed declaration before an account opens, so compliance isn't chasing down a customer's citizenship status after the fact.
Nationality and tax residency information often gets collected as one section of a general account-opening packet, easy to skip past or fill out incompletely. It surfaces as a problem later, during a compliance audit or a regulatory reporting deadline, when a required declaration turns out to be missing or incomplete and someone has to re-contact a customer, sometimes years after the account was opened, to get it corrected.
Typeform's nationality verification form asks for what a compliance team needs before an account or relationship is finalized: full legal name, nationality or citizenship, country of tax residency, and a signed self-certification. Conditional logic branches from there. A customer who declares dual or multiple nationalities can route to additional tax residency questions for each country involved, and a customer reporting a change in circumstances, like a recent relocation, can route to an updated certification instead of the standard one. Every declaration lands in one signed, dated record instead of a form buried in a larger packet.
Connect the form to your core banking or compliance software through Zapier, and an incomplete or unsigned certification can get flagged automatically before an account is finalized. Ask for it upfront, and your compliance team has a complete record ready for reporting instead of chasing missing declarations at filing time.
A nationality verification form is an online form used to collect and document a customer's declared nationality, citizenship, and tax residency, typically as part of a regulatory requirement like FATCA or CRS reporting for financial institutions, or another specific compliance obligation. It's a self-certification the customer signs, not an independent verification of citizenship status by itself.
A general packet tends to bury this declaration among many other sections, and an incomplete or unsigned nationality declaration often isn't caught until a reporting deadline or an audit. A dedicated form makes the declaration clear and complete on its own, so nothing gets missed inside a longer packet.
Ask for what your specific regulatory requirement calls for:
- Full legal name
- Nationality or citizenship, including any dual nationality
- Country or countries of tax residency
- Taxpayer identification number, if applicable
- Signed and dated self-certification
Not for general screening. Using nationality to decide eligibility for employment or most services can raise national origin discrimination concerns under laws like Title VII in the US and comparable anti-discrimination laws elsewhere. This kind of form is meant for a specific, regulated purpose, like tax reporting or verifying legal work eligibility, not as a general eligibility filter. Consult an attorney about your specific intended use before deploying a form like this for anything beyond a clearly regulated purpose.
Yes. Add a file upload question and customers can attach a passport copy or other supporting identification in the same submission, no separate email required. Pair it with conditional logic so the upload only appears when it's actually required for your specific compliance process.
