Getting verified in Singapore

We need to verify your identity before you make a transfer or add money to your main account in Singapore. It’s how we keep your money safe and comply with regulations.

There are 2 ways to get verified:

  1. Singpass — this is the fastest way to get verified. 

  2. Upload verification documents.


How do I get verified using Singpass?

Myinfo is Singapore Government e-service that allows Singpass (Singapore Personal Access) users to easily pre-fill forms. It’ll use Singpass to access the personal details we need to confirm your identity. 

We’ll only request the personal details we need, and we’ll need your permission to access them.

Who can get verified using Singpass? 

Valid Singpass account holders.

Who’s eligible for Singpass?

  • Singapore Citizen and Permanent Resident

  • Employment Pass and Personalised Employment Pass holders

  • EntrePass holders

  • S-Pass holders

  • Dependant Pass holders (of EP, PEP, EntrePass and S-Pass holders)

  • Long Term Visit Pass-Plus (LTVP+) holders

  • Long Term Visit Pass holders

  • Selected Work Permit Holders who require Singpass to access government digital services. Visit WPOL Enquiry Service to check your status

Why should I use Singpass? If you meet the requirements, you can use Myinfo to verify your identity and address details in just 1 minute. If Singpass does not have your address, you’ll need to upload a proof of address. 

What if I’m an Employment Pass holder? You can use Myinfo to verify your identity with Singpass. But you’ll still need to upload a proof of address.

I do not have Singpass. What do I need to provide?

 National identity document

We need a document issued by an appropriate legal authority showing your nationality — passport, driving license or identity document (Pink/Blue NRIC for Singaporeans) are acceptable.

Account purpose

We need to know how you’re planning to use Wise. You can tell us here.

Proof of address

A proof of address is a document that’s issued to you within the last 3 months, showing your residential address.

  • A logo, or clear name of the issuer

What types of documents can I use?

  • Utility bill: gas, electricity, or phone (for mobile phone bills we only accept Singtel, M1, StarHub, or MyRepublic)

  • Your photo driving licence showing your address
