The same check.Four regulators.
Proof of address sits in every onboarding file. What changes by sector is the evidence your regulator expects to see behind it.
Client due diligence
that survives an SRA audit.
Conveyancing and probate files need address evidence that holds up years later. Every Postal.id case produces a sealed pack with delivery records attached, filed against the matter reference.
Registered office,
actually occupied.
Company formation attracts shell registrations at mail-forwarding addresses. Postal delivery combined with forwarding detection separates a trading business from a nameplate.
Tenants who
really lived there.
Referencing fraud starts with a fabricated previous address. A postal check on the prior tenancy costs less than one void week and takes two days.
Step-up verification
where the risk actually is.
Run digital checks on every applicant and escalate to postal only when risk scoring flags the case. FCA-ready evidence, without slowing down the other 90%.
Digital tier completion for low-risk applicants.
Average postal turnaround on escalated cases.
Evidence retention, exportable on demand.
