Client Identity and Due Diligence Request Letter
About this document
A ready-to-send letter, document checklist by client type, client information and declaration form, and certification wording, so that you can collect what the Money Laundering Regulations 2017 (as amended) require in one go, and explain it in a way clients accept.
The document is laid out in the sections below. Each one comes with a plain-English guidance note explaining what it does and what to change.
Our templates are professionally structured starting points for UK businesses, not legal advice. For anything complex, unusual or high-value, have your final version checked by a solicitor.
