Why casinos ask
- To confirm you are 18 or older.
- To make sure the account and the payment method belong to the same person.
- To meet anti-money-laundering rules from the licensing regulator.
- To pay winnings to the right person.
- To enforce self-exclusion and one account per person.

Is it safe to send documents?
Upload documents only through the casino's secure account page, never by chat to someone who contacts you first. Check that the casino names a licence you can verify before sending anything. Cover the middle digits of any card.
How long it takes
Automated checks can finish within minutes; manual reviews usually take one to three days, longer at busy times or when documents are unclear. Withdrawals wait until verification is complete.
