Account verification is the process of verifying your identity and your address. What is verification for?
To verify their identity and address, freelancers need to upload certain documents. To learn about the requirements for such documents, see Verification rules.
Please note:
You need to photograph the original paper versions of your documents, and then upload them in JPG, JPEG, or PNG format.
All four corners of the document must be visible in the photo.
Photo should not be cropped or edited.
Electronic documents need to be uploaded in their original format (PDF).
Only non-handwritten, typed documents in Serbian or English are accepted.
The same kinds of documents can be called differently and vary in content across countries. Based on the results of previous background checks, we have compiled recommendations to ensure successful verification:
Notes on documents at the first and third verification steps
Verifying your identity
For the first verification step, prepare the following documents:

Verifying your residential address
For the third verification step, you can use the same documents you did for confirming your identity at the first step, if those documents indicate a residential address. For Serbia's citizens we recommend using the ID or passport for both steps by following the instructions below.
